ITEM 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

On July 14,  1998,  RCM  Technologies,  Inc.  ("Registrant")  acquired  Software
Analysis and Management, Inc. ("SAMCO"), an Orange, California-based provider of
information  technology services specializing in software and system engineering
services. The acquisition was completed,  effective as of May 1, 1998, through a
stock purchase  transaction  ("Purchase")  pursuant to which SAMCO,  it's former
shareholders  exchanged  all of  Samco's  outstanding  shares of stock  with the
Registrant and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Registrant.

The Purchase consideration paid to the former shareholders of SAMCO consisted of
$7.5 in million cash and $4.5 million of contingent  consideration  payable over
three years upon SAMCO  achieving  certain base levels of  operating  income for
each of the three twelve month periods  following  the  Purchase.  An additional
earn-out payment shall be made to the former  shareholders at the end of each of
the three twelve month  periods  commencing  August 1, 1998,  to the extent that
operating income exceeds these base levels. In addition to the purchase price, a
payment  will be made the to  sellers  of SAMCO for the net  working  capital of
SAMCO as of July 14,  1998.  The  Purchase  has been  accounted  for  under  the
purchase  method of accounting.  The source of cash utilized in the Purchase was
from the Registrant's  recent public offering.  The cost in excess of net assets
acquired will be  approximately  $7.5  million.  It is  anticipated  the cost in
excess of net assets acquired will be amortized over a 40 year period.

The Purchase consideration paid by the Registrant was determined by negotiations
between and among the representatives of the Registrant and SAMCO.

Following the Purchase, the directors and executive officers of SAMCO consist of
Leon Kopyt Chief Executive officer,  Stanton Remer Chief Financial Officer,  and
Ira A. Kweitko  (Executive  Vice President and General Manager of SAMCO prior to
the Purchase).

SAMCO's  assets  consist  primarily  of  contracts,  instrumentation  and office
equipment.  These  assets  were used in  providing  information  technology  and
software  systems  engineering  services to  businesses  and  institutions.  The
Registrant  plans for  SAMCO to  continue  such  course  of  business  under the
Registrant's control.

Prior to the Purchase,  no material  relationship  existed between SAMCO and the
Registrant or any of its affiliates,  any director or officer of the Registrant,
or any associate of any such director or officer.
