(1)     In addition,  pursuant to Rule 416(c) under  the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended,  this Registration  Statement also covers an indeterminate number of
shares of Common Stock that may be offered or issued by reason of stock  splits,
stock  dividends or similar  transactions  and an  indeterminate  number of plan
participation  interests  to be offered or sold  pursuant  to the 2000  Employee
Stock Purchase Plan being registered.

(2)     Estimated solely for purposes of  calculating the registration fee under
Rule 457(h).  The proposed  maximum  offering  price per share is based upon the
average  of the high and low  prices of Common  Stock of the  registrant  on the
NASDAQ  National  Market  System  on April  24,  2000,  multiplied  by 85%,  the
percentage  of the fair market value of the stock that is used to establish  the
purchase price under the plan.

(3)      Estimated solely for purposes of calculating the registration fee under
Rule  457(h).  The  proposed  maximum  offering  price per share with respect to
shares  issuable  under the plan as of the filing  date hereof is based upon the
average  of the high and low  prices of Common  Stock of the  registrant  on the
NASDAQ National Market System on April 24, 2000.

(4)      Computed solely for purposes of calculating the  registration fee under
Rule  457(h).  The  proposed  maximum  offering  price per share is based on the
weighted  average per share  exercise price (rounded to the nearest cent) of the
plan's  outstanding  options,  the shares  issuable  under which are  registered
hereby.

         (c)      Description  of Common  Stock of the  Registrant  contained or

Item 4.  Description of Securities.

         Not applicable.

Item 5.  Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

         None.

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

         As  permitted  by the General  Corporation  Law of  Delaware  ("GCLD"),
Article Ninth of the Certificate of  Incorporation  (the  "Certificate")  of PEC
Solutions,  Inc. (the  "Corporation")  provides for indemnification of directors
and officers of the Corporation, as follows:

         No  director  of the  Corporation  shall be  personally  liable  to the
         Corporation  or to any  stockholder  of the  Corporation  for  monetary
         damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director,  provided that this
         provision  shall not  limit the  liability  of a  director  (i) for any
         breach of the  director's  duty of  loyalty to the  corporation  or its
<PAGE>


         stockholders,  (ii) for acts or  omissions  not in good  faith or which
         involved  intentional  misconduct or a knowing  violation of law, (iii)
         under Section 174 of the General  Corporation Law of Delaware,  or (iv)
         for any  transaction  from  which  the  director  derived  an  improper
         personal benefit.

         Also, the Corporation's By-Laws contain indemnification procedures that
implement the  indemnification  provisions of the Certificate of  Incorporation.
The GCLD permits a corporation  to indemnify  its directors and officers,  among
others, against judgments,  fines,  settlements and reasonable expenses actually
incurred by them in connection with any proceedings to which they may be a party
by reason of their service in those or other capacities, if such person acted in
good faith and in a manner which such person reasonably believed to be in or not
opposed  to the best  interests  of the  Corporation,  and with  respect  to any
criminal  action or  proceedings,  had no reasonable  cause to believe that such
conduct was unlawful.

         As  permitted  by  the  GCLD,   Article  Eighth  of  the  Corporation's
Certificate   provides  for   limitation   of  liability  of  directors  of  the
Corporation, as follows:

         To the extent  permitted by law, the Corporation  shall fully indemnify
         any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to
         any  threatened,  pending  or  completed  action,  suit  or  proceeding
         (whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative) by reason of
         the fact  that such  person  is or was a  director  or  officer  of the
         Corporation,  or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as
         a  director  or  officer of  another  corporation,  partnership,  joint
         venture,  trust,  employee  benefit plan or other  enterprise,  against
         expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid
         in  settlement  actually  and  reasonably  incurred  by such  person in
         connection with such action, suit or proceeding.

Item 7.  Exemption from Registration Claimed.

                  Not applicable.

Item 9.  Undertakings.

         The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

         (1) To file,  during  any  period  in which  offers  or sales are being
made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

             (i)    To include any  prospectus  required by Section  10(a)(3) of
                    the Securities Act of 1933;

             (ii)   To reflect  in the  prospectus  any facts or events  arising
                    after the effective date of the  Registration  Statement (or
                    the most recent  post-effective  amendment  thereof)  which,
                    individually  or in the  aggregate,  represent a fundamental
                    change in the  information  set  forth in this  Registration
                    Statement;

             (iii)  To include  any  material  information  with  respect to the
                    plan  of  distribution  not  previously   disclosed  in  the
                    Registration  Statement  or  any  material  change  to  such
                    information in the Registration Statement.

<PAGE>

        Paragraphs (l)(i) and (l)(ii) above  do not  apply  if  the  information
required to be included in a  post-effective  amendment by those  paragraphs  is
contained in periodic reports filed by the Registrant  pursuant to Section 13 or
Section 15(d) of the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934 that are  incorporated  by
reference in this Registration Statement.

        (2) That, for  the  purpose  of  determining  any  liability  under  the
Securities Act of 1933, each such  post-effective  amendment  shall be deemed to
be a new registration  statement  relating to the  securities  offered  therein,
and the offering of such  securities at that  time  shall  be  deemed  to be the
initial bona fide offering thereof.

        (3) To  remove   from  registration   by  means   of  a   post-effective
amendment  any of the  securities  being  registered  which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.

        The  undersigned  Registrant  hereby  undertakes  that, for purposes  of
determining  any liability  under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
Registrant's  annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable,  each filing of an employee benefit
plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934) that is incorporated by reference in the  Registration  Statement shall be
deemed to be a new  Registration  Statement  relating to the securities  offered
therein,  and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof.

        Insofar as indemnification  for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors,  officers and controlling  persons of
the  Registrant  pursuant  to  the  foregoing  provisions,   or  otherwise,  the
Registrant  has been advised that in the opinion of the  Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act
and is, therefore,  unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such  liabilities  (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director,  officer or controlling person of the Registrant
in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director,  officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been  settled by  controlling  precedent,  submit to a court of  appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such  indemnification  by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.

Fairfax, Virginia 22033

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         We have acted as counsel to PEC Solution,  Inc., a Delaware Corporation
(the  "Company"),  in  connection  with  the  preparation  and  filing  with the
Securities and Exchange Commission of a registration  statement on Form S-8 (the
"Registration  Statement")  registering  2,000,000  shares of Common Stock,  par
value $.01 per share (the "Common  Stock"),  issuable  pursuant to subscriptions
under the Company's  2000  Employee  Stock  Purchase  Plan (the "Plan  Shares"),
1,500,000  shares of Common  Stock  issuable  pursuant to the  exercise of stock
options granted under the Company's 2000 Stock Incentive Plan in 2000, 1,237,540
shares of Common  Stock  issuable  pursuant  to the  exercise  of stock  options
granted under the Company's 1987 Stock Option Agreement, and 3,173,064 shares of
Common Stock  issuable  pursuant to the exercise of stock options  granted under
the  Company's  1995  Nonqualified   Stock  Option  Plan  (all  such  plans  are
collectively  referred to herein as the  "Plans,"  and all such shares  issuable
under the Plans are collectively referred to herein the "Plan Shares").

         We have examined copies of the Company's  Certificate of Incorporation,
By-Laws,  the Plan, all resolutions  adopted by the Company's Board of Directors
relating  to the above and  other  records  and  documents  that we have  deemed
necessary  for the purpose of this  opinion.  We have also  examined  such other
documents,  papers, statutes and authorities as we have deemed necessary to form
a basis for this opinion. In our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of
all signatures and the conformity to original  documents of all copies submitted
to us. As to various questions of fact material to this opinion,  we have relied
on statements and  certificates of officers and  representatives  of the Company
and others.

         Based  upon the  foregoing,  we are of the  opinion  that  Plan  Shares
issuable under the Plan have been duly authorized and will be (when issued, sold
and delivered as authorized) validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

         The opinions  set forth  herein are limited to matters  governed by the
laws of the State of  Delaware  and the  Federal  Laws of the  United  States of
America, and we express no opinion as to any other laws.

         We hereby  consent to the filing of this  opinion as Exhibit 5.0 to the
Registration Statement.

                                         Very truly yours,

                                         /s/ PIPER MARBURY RUDNICK & WOLFE LLP
