Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations

         This discussion and analysis of the Company's  financial  condition and
historical  results  of  operations  should  be read  in  conjunction  with  the
condensed financial  statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this
report.

Overview

         The   Company   is   a   single-source   provider   of   comprehensive,
technology-based   security  solutions  for  medium  and  large  commercial  and
government  facilities  in the United  States and abroad.  The Company  offers a
broad  range  of  services,   including:   (i)  consulting  and  planning;  (ii)
engineering  and design;  (iii) systems  integration;  and (iv)  maintenance and
technical support.

         The first quarter of 2000  continued the  improvements  in new business
development.  By the end of the first  quarter  the  company  had $20 million in
backlog and follow-on projects  identified with existing  customers.  During the
first quarter the  Company's  strategy of adding large  commercial  clients with
many facilities  began to significantly  expand the recurring  revenue base from
existing  customers.  The Company  received over $5 million in new awards during
the quarter. In addition, the Company added 10 new customers during the quarter.
There were no customers lost during the quarter. The Company's focused marketing
efforts to provide high quality integrated  security systems to major commercial
accounts  will allow the  companies  to grow  revenue and profits  over the long
term.

         The Company derives its revenues primarily from long-term,  fixed-price
contracts.  Earnings are  recognized  based upon the Company's  estimates of the
cost and percentage of completion of individual contracts. Earned revenues equal
the project's  total contract  amount  multiplied by the proportion  that direct
project  costs  incurred on a project bear to  estimated  total  project  costs.
Project costs include direct labor and benefits,  direct  material,  subcontract
costs, project related travel and other direct expenses.

         Clients  are  invoiced  based upon  negotiated  payment  terms for each
individual contract. Terms usually include a 25% down payment and the balance as
stages of the work are  completed.  Maintenance  contracts  are billed either in
advance,  monthly,  or quarterly.  As a result, the Company records as an asset,
costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings, and as a liability, billings
in excess of costs and estimated earnings.

represented  by  certain  items   reflected  in  the  Company's   statements  of

Three Months Ended March 31, 2000 Compared With Three Months Ended March 31,
1999

         Revenues  increased by 142% from $1.5 million in the three months ended
March 31, 1999 to $3.7 million in the three  months  ended March 31,  1999.  The
increase was due primarily to revenue of new  customers  and  increased  revenue
from existing customers. The increase in revenue was primarily due to the growth
of large commercial accounts such as MCI Worldcom and Nokia.

         Cost of earned revenues  increased from $12 million in the three months
ended March 31, 1999 to $2.2  million in the three  months ended March 31, 2000,
primarily due to the increase in revenues.  Gross margin increased from 21.8% in
the 1999 period to 39.1% in 2000.  Margins improved due to improved pricing from
key vendors on several large projects and higher rates for labor.

         Selling,  general and  administrative  expenses increased 113% from $.6
million in the three  months  ended March 31, 1999 to $1.2  million in the three
months  ended  March  31,  2000.  The  increase  was  primarily  due to  Company
initiatives  to  increase  business  development,  and to manage  the  increased
business.  The  growth in  selling,  general  and  administrative  expenses  was
proportionately less than the growth in revenues thereby decreasing the expenses
as a percentage of revenues.

         Interest expense and financing fees increased from $0.06 million in the
three  months  ended March 31, 1999 to $0.1  million in the three  months  ended
March 31, 2000.  The growth in Interest and Financing  Fees was  proportionately
less than the growth in revenue  thereby  decreasing  the Interest and Financing
Fees as a percentage of revenue.

         Net loss improved from a net loss of $0.3 million in 1999 to net income
of $0.1 million in 2000.  The  improvement  was due to improved  gross  margins,
constrained  growth  in  selling,   general  and  administrative   expenses  and
dramatically improved revenue.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         In October 1997, the Company  completed its initial public  offering of
Common  Stock,  which  resulted in net proceeds to the Company of  approximately
$9.7 million  after payment of offering  expenses by the Company.  In the fourth
quarter of 1997, the Company  received  proceeds of  approximately  $0.7 million
upon the  exercise of warrants to  purchase  269,382  shares of Common  Stock by
employees.  In October  1997,  the Company used  proceeds of the initial  public
offering to repay $3.4 million of outstanding notes payable.

         During April 1998,  the Board of Directors  approved the issuance of up
to $2.0 million of  convertible  subordinated  debentures to provide  additional
working capital.  As of May 13, 1998, the Company had issued and sold $1,450,000
of  debentures.  The Company sold an  additional  $400,000 of  debentures  as of
August  25,  1998.  The  debentures  had an  interest  rate of 10%,  were due on
December 31, 1999 and were convertible into Common Stock of the Company at $8.50
per share. In addition,  the holders were issued 100 warrants for each $1,000 of
investment with an exercise price of $2.50 and a term of three years.  The value
of the warrants of $71,394 was determined based upon the Black Scholes Valuation
Model and was recorded as additional paid-in capital.

         During February 1999, the $1.9 million the Company was required to post
as  collateral  for a bond pending its appeal of a lawsuit was released when the
trial  court's  judgment was  reversed.  In February  1999,  the Company  repaid
$920,000 of the outstanding debentures.

         During  September  1999 all of the holders of the  company's 10% senior
notes  totaling  $930,000 due December 31, 1999,  have agreed to exchange  their
notes for the Company's common stock valued at $1.50 per share. Additionally, to
support the  significant  increase  in  business,  the board  approved a private
placement of 500,000 shares at $1.50 per share, which was subsequently increased
to 1,204,855 shares. The board also approved the sale of up to 21% equity in the
Company to a  minority  partner.  Netcom  Solutions  International  subsequently
purchased  approximately 8% or 700,000 shares of the Company at $1.50 per share.
As of March 23, 2000, all of these transactions had been completed.  In summary,
$930,000 of debt was  converted  to equity,  $1.8  million  was  received by the
private  placement and $1.05  million in the form of cash and a short-term  note
was received from the sale of a minority interest.

         As of March 31, 2000,  the Company had cash of $0.4 million and working
capital of $0.7  million.  The  Company is pursuing  obtaining  financing/credit
facilities  to increase  working  capital to fund a  significant  ramp up of new
business.
