Working terms

Straightforward from the start.

What is a fractional CTO?

A fractional CTO is a senior technology executive who works with your company part-time, on a monthly retainer. You get executive-level technology strategy, oversight, and vendor management without the salary and benefits of a full-time hire.

Do you only advise, or do you also do the work?

Both. Hadi is a hands-on engineer. Kosma sets the plan and then builds, configures, and integrates the systems itself. We own the process end to end, from the first assessment to a working system your team can run.

What happens to our existing IT provider?

They continue handling daily operations and support tickets. Kosma owns the technology roadmap and oversees the decisions and work needed to deliver it.

Who owns the accounts and work?

You own your accounts, data, and configurations. We document systems throughout the engagement and help with the transition when you hire a full-time technology leader.

How are fees and third-party costs handled?

Every engagement begins with a signed scope, deliverables, and fee. Third-party costs pass through at cost, with receipts. Kosma takes no vendor commissions or margin.

Where do you work?

Based in Maryland, with an initial focus on Montgomery and Frederick Counties. We serve the DC, Maryland, and Virginia region and work with clients beyond it.
