ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION 
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 1998

For the quarter ended June 30, 1998,  the Company had revenues of $9,582,777
compared to revenues of $9,039,176 for the quarter ended June 30, 1997.  The
increase in revenues resulted primarily from the additional revenues generated
from internal growth.  The net income for the three months ended June 30, 1998
was $187,840 or $.08 per share, compared to a net income of $167,252 or $.07 per
share, for the three months ended June 30, 1997.  The net income for the quarter
ended June 30, 1998 was primarily impacted by increased gross profit from the
increased revenue.

For the six month period ended June 30, 1998, the Company had revenue of
$20,074,569 compared to revenue of $17,604,022 for the six months ended June 30,
1997.  The net income for the six months ended June 30, 1998 was $434,270 of
$.19 per share compared to a net income of 300,007 or $.13 per share, for the
six months ended June 30, 1997.  

Company's 90 day order backlog was $8,159,000 as of June 30, 1998, compared to
$7,900,000 at the beginning of  the quarter.  Based on the current conditions,
the Company anticipates revenue levels in the third quarter of 1998 to be
slightly higher than the second quarter of 1998.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES.

The Company's working capital increased to $10,989,219 during the second quarter
of 1998, compared to $9,670,225 as of December 31, 1997.  The Company believes
that its financial stability will continue to improve during 1998 and would
expect that its operating cash flow and available credit faculities will be
sufficient to fund the expected growth in the near term.
