ITEM 2.               MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
           FOR THE QUARTER AND THREE QUARTERS ENDED SEPTEMBER 27, 1996

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

        This document may contain certain forward looking statements concerning
the Company's current expectations as to future results. Such statements are
made by the Company based upon current assumptions as to the anticipated growth
of the industry, price and wage inflation, and the availability of qualified
professional staff, and involve a number of risks and uncertainties. As such,
actual results may differ materially.

        The Company reported third quarter revenue of $89.4 million and net
income of $3.0 million and year-to-date revenue of $270.7 million and net income
of $7.9 million. Third quarter 1996 revenue of $89.4 million was 4.4 percent
greater than third quarter 1995 revenue of $85.6 million. $2.1 million of the
increase results from a 2.7 percent increase in revenue from North American
operations. The North American increase is primarily attributable to an increase
in billable rates from the third quarter of 1995 to the third quarter of 1996.
European revenue increased by $1.7 million or 21.5 percent, due to an increase
in billable staff of 31.7 percent from the third quarter of 1995 to the third
quarter of 1996. IBM continues to be the Company's largest customer, accounting
for $26.8 million or 30.0 percent of third quarter 1996 revenue and $76.7
million or 28.3 percent of year-to-date revenue. Revenue from IBM accounted for
24.0 percent and 22.0 percent, respectively, of third quarter and year-to-date
1995 revenue.

        Direct costs, defined as costs for billable staff, in the third quarter
were $63.3 million or 70.8 percent of revenue compared to $62.4 million or 72.9
percent of revenue in the third quarter of 1995. Direct costs for the 1996
year-to-date period were 71.6 percent of revenue, as compared to 73.1 percent
for the 1995 year-to-date period. The decrease in direct costs as a percentage
of revenue compared to the third quarter of 1995 and for 1995 year-to-date is
primarily due to an increase in billing rates, and an increase in the
utilization of professional staff.

        Selling, general and administrative expenses were $21.3 million or 23.8
percent of revenue in the third quarter of 1996 compared to $20.0 million or
23.4 percent of revenue in the third quarter of 1995. Selling, general and
administrative expenses were $63.7 million or 23.5 percent of revenue for the
1996 year-to-date period as compared to $58.7 or 23.3 percent of revenue for the
1995 year-to-date period.

        Operating income was $4.9 million or 5.4 percent of revenue in the third
quarter of 1996 compared to $3.3 million or 3.8 percent of revenue in the third
quarter of 1995. Operating income was $13.2 million or 4.9 percent of revenue
for the 1996 year-to-date period as compared to $9.3 million or 3.7 percent of
revenue for the 1995 year-to-date period. The increase is primarily due to the
factors discussed above. Operating income from North American operations
increased $.7 million or 21.4 percent for the third quarter of 1996 and $2.0
million or 21.7 percent for the 1996 year-to-date period. European operations
recorded operating income of $.8 million and $2.2 million, respectively, in the
third quarter of 1996 and the 1996 year-to-date period, compared to an operating
loss of $.1 million and operating income of $.2 million, respectively, in the
third quarter of 1995 and the 1995 year-to-date period.

        Income before income taxes increased by $1.8 million from $3.2 million
or 3.7 percent of revenue in the third quarter of 1995 to $5.0 million or 5.6
percent of revenue in the third quarter of 1996, and by $4.4 million from $8.7
million or 3.4 percent of revenue for the 1995 year-to-date period to $13.1
million or 4.8 percent of revenue for the 1996 year-to-date period. The
provision for income taxes for the third quarter of 1996 was 40 percent,
compared to a benefit for the third quarter of 1995. The 1995 benefit was a
result of the Company recording a tax benefit of $3.2 million related to losses
associated with the Company's European operations. During the third quarter of
1995, the Company completed an assessment of its alternatives for its European
operations, including a determination of the value of these operations. Based on
this assessment, the Company recorded tax benefits for these losses which were
previously recognized for financial reporting purposes. Without this benefit,
the tax rate would have approximated 37 percent.


                                        6
<PAGE>   7

The 1995 rate was reduced primarily due to a decrease in the Company's reserve
for potential income tax assessments taken in the third quarter of 1995.

        The Company's goal is to continue to increase billable headcount to meet
market demand. It is the Company's goal to reduce direct costs as a percentage
of revenue and contain selling, general and administrative expenses as the
Company grows.

Financial Condition
- -------------------

        Cash provided by operations was $24.8 million for the first three
quarters of 1996. Net income totaled $7.9 million and non-cash adjustments for
depreciation and amortization expense and deferred compensation expense totaled
$4.5 million. The $1.0 million or 1.7 percent increase in accounts receivable is
primarily a result of the increase in revenue offset by improved accounts
receivable turnover. Prepaid assets increased $.3 million due to the prepayment
of items that will be expensed throughout the remainder of the year. The $1.9
million increase in accounts payable is primarily due to the timing of payments
at quarter end versus the prior year end. Accrued compensation and other current
liabilities increased $12.0 million as a result of the timing of the Company's
U.S. bi-weekly payroll and due to an increase in the usage of outside
contractors by the Company during 1996.

        Net property and equipment decreased $3.4 million. Additions to property
and equipment were $2.2 million offset by year-to-date depreciation of $3.7
million and disposals of $1.9 million. The Company has no material commitments
for capital expenditures at September 27, 1996. Net acquired intangibles
decreased $.8 million, caused by year-to-date amortization of $.6 million and
$.2 million in translation adjustments.

        Financing activities used $7.6 million of cash for the first three
quarters of 1996. The Company repaid $5.9 million of long-term debt to reduce
its outstanding balances at September 27, 1996 to zero. At September 27, 1996,
the Company's current ratio is 2.4 to 1.

        During the first three quarters of 1996, the Company received $.5
million from employees for 20,800 shares of stock purchased under the Employee
Stock Purchase Plan. The Company also received $1.7 million for the exercise of
stock options. Payments totaling $3.0 million were made for the purchase of
stock for treasury. The Company paid an annual dividend of $.10 per share
totaling $853,000 in May 1996.

        The Company has approximately $54 million in aggregate lines of credit
which are renewable annually at various times throughout the year.
