ITEM 2:  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                  CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Gross  revenue  for the first  nine  months of fiscal  1997 was  $30,143,000  as
compared  to gross  revenue of  $24,884,000  for the first nine months of fiscal
1996.  This 21% increase  was due  primarily  to the  increased  workload in the
transportation,  aviation,  aerospace and defense,  commercial and institutional
programs.  Revenues in these  program  areas  increased as a result of intensive
sales efforts  throughout the current and prior years.  Corresponding  with this
increase was a 53% increase in subcontract  and other direct costs for the first
nine months of fiscal 1997 over the same period for fiscal 1996.  Increased  use
of subconsultants  was experienced  primarily in the  transportation,  aviation,
commercial and institutional programs. As a result of the increase in both gross
revenue and other direct costs, net service revenue increased 11% to $20,708,000
for the first nine  months of fiscal  1997 from  $18,707,000  for the first nine
months of fiscal  1996.  Gross  revenue  for the third  quarter  of fiscal  1997
increased to $9,047,000  from  $8,666,000  for the third quarter of fiscal 1996.
This 4% increase was due  primarily to increases in the aviation and  commercial
programs.  Corresponding with this increase, net service revenue increased 3% to
$6,451,000  for the third quarter of fiscal 1997 from  $6,245,000  for the third
quarter of fiscal 1996.

Cost of services represents direct labor costs associated with the generation of
net service revenues. Cost of services, for the first nine months of fiscal 1997
was $8,261,000, representing a 9% increase over the same period for fiscal 1996.
Expressed  as a percentage  of net service  revenue,  cost of services  remained
consistent  at 40% for both the first nine months of fiscal 1997 and 1996.  As a
result of these factors and increased  revenues,  gross profit  increased 12% to
$12,447,000 in fiscal 1997 from  $11,138,000  in fiscal 1996.  Cost of services,
for the third  quarter of fiscal 1997 was  $2,501,000,  a 1%  decrease  over the
third  quarter of fiscal 1996.  As with the first nine months,  cost of services
remained  relatively  consistent  at 39% and 41% of net service  revenue for the
third quarters of fiscal 1997 and 1996, respectively.  Gross profit increased 7%
to $3,950,000  in the third quarter of fiscal 1997 from  $3,706,000 in the third
quarter of fiscal 1996.

Selling,  general and  administrative  (SG&A) expenses consist of labor costs of
operational  personnel not utilized on projects  (i.e.  indirect  labor),  labor
costs of  administrative  and  support  personnel,  office  rent,  depreciation,
insurance and other operating expenses.  SG&A expenses for the first nine months
of fiscal 1997 were  $11,471,000 as compared to  $10,823,000  for the first nine
months of fiscal 1996.  For the third  quarter of fiscal 1997 SG&A expenses were







$3,825,000 as compared to $3,597,000 for the third quarter of fiscal 1996. These
6%  increases  were  due  primarily  to  increases  in   compensation,   further
acquisition  and  implementation  of  computer  and  communications  technology,
professional fees and temporary help.

Income before income taxes was $994,000 for the first nine months of fiscal 1997
versus  $215,000 for the same period of fiscal 1996.  Income before income taxes
was $136,000 for the third  quarter of fiscal 1997 versus  $79,000 for the third
quarter of fiscal 1996.  These  increases  were  primarily  attributable  to the
increase in net service fees as described above.

Net income was  $566,000 for the first nine months of fiscal 1997 as compared to
$90,000 for the first nine months of fiscal  1996.  Net income was  $109,000 for
the third quarter of fiscal 1997 as compared to $34,000 for the third quarter of
fiscal 1996.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of  December  31,  1996 the Company  had cash of  $1,246,000  and  additional
borrowing  available on the revolving line of credit of $1,750,000.  The Company
believes that its existing  financial  resources,  together with its future cash
flow from operations, will provide sufficient capital to fund its operations for
the foreseeable future.
