INTRODUCTION

     This statement is Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D filed by Thomas E.
Fallat and Opal A. Fallat, husband and wife, as a group (collectively the
"Fallats" or "Reporting Persons") on December 10, 1996 with respect to shares of
common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the "Common Stock") of Cotelligent
Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Cotelligent" or the "Company").

     On November 27, 1995, Cotelligent, Pittsburgh Business Consultants, Inc.
("PBC"), a Pennsylvania corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Cotelligent,
Cotelligent/PBC Acquisition Corporation, a Pennsylvania corporation and a wholly
owned subsidiary of Cotelligent ("Cotelligent Sub") and the Reporting Persons
and other shareholders of PBC entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the
"Merger Agreement") pursuant to which Cotelligent Sub merged (the "Merger") with
and into PBC.  As a result of the Merger, which was effective on November 27,
1996 (the "Effective Time"), the separate existence of Cotelligent Sub ceased
and PBC became a wholly owned subsidiary of Cotelligent.

     Prior to the Merger, the Reporting Persons owned 7,341.6 shares of PBC
common stock par value $1.00 per share (the "PBC Common Stock").  Pursuant to
the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, each issued and outstanding share
of PBC Common Stock was converted into Cotelligent Common Stock.  In connection
with the Merger, the Reporting Persons received 1,142,350 shares of Cotelligent
Common Stock.

ITEM 1.   SECURITY AND ISSUER:

     This statement relates to the 1,142,350 shares of Cotelligent Common Stock
received by the Reporting Persons as a result of the Merger.  Cotelligent's

     The persons filing this statement are Thomas E. Fallat and Opal A. Fallat,

of the Fallats is 3115 Deerfield Lane, Murrysville, PA 15668. Mr. Fallat is the
Chief Executive Officer of PBC. PBC's principal business address is 411 7th
Avenue, Pittsburgh, PA 15219. Mrs. Fallat is not employed.

     During the last five years, neither of the Fallats has been convicted in a
criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors), nor
has either of the Fallats been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or
administrative body of competent jurisdiction as a result of which either of the

Persons plan to discuss additional actions to protect their investment in the
Company including, without limitation, proposing that Mr. Thomas Fallat (or his
nominee) be added to the Board of Directors of the Company.

which would relate to or result in any of the events, actions or conditions
specified in paragraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of this Schedule, although the
Reporting Persons reserve the right to take any action which relates to or would
result in any of such events, actions or conditions.
