             Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1.   The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
     accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
     financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Rule 
     10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
     information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
     principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management,
     all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered
     necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for
     the three month period ended March 31, 1997 are not necessarily indicative
     of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1997.
     For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and
     footnotes thereto for the year ended December 31, 1996 included in the
     Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.

2.   On May 31, 1996, the Company completed its initial public offering. The
     Company issued 2,175,000 shares of the Company's common stock and received
     net proceeds of approximately $9.9 million. The proceeds will be used for
     acquisitions, working capital, general corporate purposes and capital
     expenditures.

3.   Net income per share is computed using the weighted average number of
     shares of common and common equivalent shares (stock options and warrants)
     outstanding. As required by a Staff Accounting Bulletin issued by the
     Securities and Exchange Commission, common and common equivalent shares
     issued by the Company during the twelve-month period preceding the
     offering, discussed above, have been included in the calculation as if they
     were outstanding for all periods presented (using the treasury stock method
     and assuming an initial public offering price of $5.00 per share).

4.   In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
     of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, "Earnings per Share,"
     which requires the dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per
     share. The Company will adopt this standard as of December 31, 1997, as
     required. Early adoption is not permitted.

5.   In April 1997 the Company completed the acquisition of the assets and
     certain liabilities of Cutting Edge Computer Solutions, Inc. (Cutting Edge)
     for cash. Cutting Edge is an information services consulting firm with
     primary offices in Malvern, PA, and Alexandria, VA, that specializes in the
     design and development of business software using client-server, relational
     database, and internet and intranet technologies. Cutting Edge had 26
     employees and reported revenues of $2.2 million in calendar year 1996.
     This acquisition will be accounted for using the purchase method of
     accounting.

                     Management's Discussion and Analysis of
                  Financial Condition and Results of Operations

First Quarter 1997 as compared to First Quarter 1996

Revenue. The Company's revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 increased
by $1.8 million or 25.8% to $8.9 million from $7.1 million in 1996.
Approximately 68.7% of this increase resulted from an increase in the volume of
technical employee hours billed and approximately 31.3% of the increase resulted
from an increase in aggregate average rates for hours billed during the first
quarter of 1997 as compared with the corresponding period in 1996. For the
quarter, the percentage of revenue from clients in the pharmaceutical industry
was 67.3% compared to 57.8% in the first quarter of 1996.

Direct costs. Direct costs for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 increased by
$1.3 million or 32.9% to $5.2 million from $3.9 million in 1996. This increase
is principally due to an increase in the number of professional staff to 351
technical personnel at March 31, 1997 from 273 at March 31, 1996. As a
percentage of revenues, direct costs increased to 58.4% for the first quarter of
1997 from 55.3% for the first quarter of 1996. This increase resulted
principally from the delay in several large projects which caused the Company's
technical personnel utilization rates (i.e. the ratio of hours billed to total
available hours) in the first quarter of 1997 to decline compared the first
quarter of 1996. The Company believes its direct costs as a percentage of
revenue will be less for the balance of 1997 than in the first quarter.

Selling expenses. Selling expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 1997
increased by $209,000 to $602,000 from $393,000 in the corresponding period in
1996. This increase is principally due to the increase in the number of sales
and marketing personnel to 16 at March 31, 1997 from nine at March 31, 1996.

General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses for the
quarter ended March 31, 1997 increased by $893,000 or 68.4% to $2.2 million from
$1.3 million in the corresponding period in 1996. As a percentage of revenues,
general and administrative expenses increased to 24.7% for the first quarter of
1997 from 18.5% for the first quarter of 1996. These increases are principally
due to increases in facilities costs (office rent and utilities) and facility
related costs (such as depreciation of computer equipment, amortization of
software and leasehold improvements, expansion of computer networks, additional
software costs and the costs of related support personnel) to support an
increase in the number of professional and supervisory personnel performing
client engagements in the Company's offices rather than at client locations.
Also, during the first quarter of 1997 the Company incurred certain new expenses
and increased insurance, legal and accounting expenses associated with public
company filings and compliance requirements and with investor and shareholder
relations. The Company believes its general and administrative expenses as a
percentage of revenue will be less for the balance of 1997.

<PAGE>


First Quarter 1997 as compared to First Quarter 1996, continued

Interest income. Interest income for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 increased
to $135,000 from $22,000 in the corresponding period in 1996. The increase is
principally due to higher average cash equivalents and short-term investments
balances. The increase in cash balances principally resulted from approximately
$9.9 million that the Company received from its initial public offering which
closed on May 31, 1996.

Effective income tax rate. The Company's effective income rate for the first
quarter of 1997 was 42.0% and 43.0% for the first quarter of 1996.


<PAGE>


Liquidity and Capital Resources:

Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments decreased $2.4 million to
$8.8 million at March 31, 1997 from $11.3 million at December 31, 1996. The
decrease resulted primarily from working capital requirements and capital
expenditures. At March 31, 1997 cash equivalents and short-term investments were
invested in short-term U. S. governmental agency issues, institutional
money-market funds and a master repurchase agreement. By policy, the Company
places its investments in high credit-quality instruments.

On May 31, 1996, the Company completed its initial public offering. The Company
issued 2,175,000 shares of the Company's common stock and received net proceeds
of approximately $9.9 million. The proceeds will be used for acquisitions,
working capital, general corporate purposes and capital expenditures.

The Company currently anticipates that the net proceeds received from the
offering together with cash generated from operations and existing cash balances
will be sufficient to satisfy its operating requirements and ordinary capital
spending for the foreseeable future. Should the Company's business expand more
rapidly than expected, the Company believes that its existing and additional
bank credit would be available to fund such operating and capital requirements.
In addition, the Company could consider seeking additional public or private
debt or equity financing to fund growth opportunities, including acquisitions.


Safe Harbor Statement:

Statements made in this filing that are forward-looking involve risk and
uncertainties and are subject to change at any time. The Company derives its
forward-looking statements from its operating budgets and forecasts which are
based upon detailed assumptions about many important factors. While the Company
believes that its assumptions are reasonable, it cautions that there are
inherent difficulties in predicting the impact of certain factors, including
client demand, dependence on the pharmaceutical industry, the attraction and
retention of technical employees, concentration and mix of revenues, and other
factors, which could cause actual results to differ materially from predicted
results. These factors, as and when applicable, are disclosed previously and
from time to time in the Company's filing with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
