                NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.       BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of January 
3, 1999, the condensed consolidated statements of income and the condensed 
statements of cash flows for the three-month periods ended January 3, 1999 
and December 28, 1997 are unaudited, and in the opinion of management include 
all adjustments, consisting of only normal and recurring adjustments, 
necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and the results 
of operations for the periods presented.

         The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in 
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto 
included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year 
ended October 4, 1998.

         The results of operations for the three-month period ended January 
3, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the 
fiscal year ending October 3, 1999.

2.       EARNINGS PER SHARE

         Due to the Company's complex capital structure, the Company presents 
both basic and diluted Earnings Per Share (EPS). Basic EPS excludes dilution 
and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the 
weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted 
EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of 
common shares outstanding and dilutive potential common shares. The Company 
includes as potential common shares the weighted average number shares of 
exchangeable stock of a subsidiary and the weighted average diluted effects 
of outstanding stock options. The exchangeable stock of a subsidiary is 
non-voting and is exchangeable, share for share, for the Company's common 
stock. Basic and diluted EPS reflect, on a retroactive basis, a 5-for-4 stock 
split effected in the form of a 25% stock dividend, wherein one additional 
share of stock was issued on September 15, 1998 for each four shares 
outstanding as of the record date of July 27, 1998.

3.       CURRENT ASSETS

         The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a 
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash 
equivalents totaled $434,000 and $4,889,000 at January 3, 1999 and October 4, 
1998, respectively.

4.       MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS

         On December 31, 1997, the Company acquired, through its wholly-owned 
subsidiary Tetra Tech NUS, Inc., the assets of certain environmental services 
businesses of Brown & Root, Inc. and Halliburton Corporation, both of which 
are subsidiaries of Halliburton

                                       -6-

<PAGE>

Company (collectively, NUS). NUS provides consulting, engineering and design 
services for the environmental remediation of contaminated air, water and 
soil conditions. The purchase price was valued at approximately $25,217,000, 
as adjusted, and consisted of cash.

         On March 2, 1998, Whalen Service Corps Inc. (WSC) agreed to 
participate in a partnership with Sentrex Cen-Comm and ANTEC Corporation to 
provide design, engineering, information management and construction services 
to support advanced communication system upgrades to the broadband 
information transport industries. The agreement required the purchase of 
certain assets of TANCO LLC from ANTEC Corporation for a price in cash of 
approximately $623,000. WSC initially held a 51% majority interest in 
Whalen/Sentrex LLC, a California limited liability company, while LAL Corp. 
held the remaining 49% minority interest.

         On March 26, 1998, the Company acquired 100% of the capital stock of 
C.D.C. Engineering, Inc. (CDE), a consulting and engineering firm 
specializing in civil engineering, transportation engineering, structural 
engineering and land surveying. The purchase has been valued at approximately 
$1,502,000, consisting of cash and 71,060 shares of Company common stock.

         On July 8, 1998, the Company acquired 100% of the capital stock of 
McNamee, Porter & Seeley, Inc. (MPS), a provider of engineering services with 
expertise in the areas of water, industrial wastewater and process controls. 
The purchase was valued at approximately $14,247,000, consisting of cash and 
274,888 shares of Company common stock. Simultaneously with the acquisition, 
MPS distributed to its former shareholders accounts receivable having a net 
value of $8,040,000.

         On September 22, 1998, the Company acquired, through its subsidiary 
Tetra Tech Canada Ltd. (TtC), 100% of the capital stock of 1056584 Ontario 
Limited, 1056585 Ontario Limited, Venture Cable Limited, Cen-Comm 
Communications, Inc., Sentrex Electronics Inc. and LAL Corp. (collectively, 
the Sentrex Group of Companies (SGOC)), providers of engineering and 
technical services to the cable television, telephony and data networking 
industries. The purchase has been valued at approximately $19,227,000, 
consisting of cash and 920,354 shares of TtC exchangeable stock. The TtC 
exchangeable stock is exchangeable, share for share, for Company common stock 
as described in the related purchase agreement. Upon completion of the SGOC 
acquisition, the Company beneficially owns 100% of Whalen/Sentrex LLC.

         All of the acquisitions above have been accounted for as purchases 
and, accordingly, the purchase prices of the businesses acquired have been 
allocated to the assets and liabilities acquired based upon their fair market 
values. The excess of the purchase cost of the acquisitions over the fair 
value of the net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill and is included in 
Intangible Assets -Net in the accompanying balance sheets. The Company values 
stock exchanged in acquisitions based on extended restriction periods and 
economic factors specific to the Company's circumstances. During fiscal 1998, 
stock exchanged in acquisitions was discounted by 15%. The results of 
operations of each of the companies acquired have been

                                       -7-

<PAGE>

included in the Company's financial statements from their respective 
acquisition effective dates as set forth in the related purchase agreements.

         The effect of unaudited pro forma operating results of the SGOC and 
CDE transactions, had they been acquired on September 29, 1997, is not 
material.

         Pro forma operating results assuming the Company had acquired MPS 
and NUS on September 29, 1997 is presented in Note 6. UNAUDITED PRO FORMA 
OPERATING RESULTS. 

5.       ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

         Accounts receivable are presented net of a valuation allowance to 
provide for doubtful accounts and for the potential disallowance of billed 
and unbilled costs. The allowance for doubtful accounts as of January 3, 1999 
and October 4, 1998 was $3,004,000 and $2,911,000, respectively. The 
allowance for disallowed costs as of January 3, 1999 and October 4, 1998 was 
$9,654,000 and $9,773,000, respectively. Disallowance of billed and unbilled 
costs is primarily associated with contracts with the U.S. government which 
contain clauses that subject contractors to several levels of audit. 
Management believes that resolution of these matters will not have a material 
adverse impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

6.       UNAUDITED PRO FORMA OPERATING RESULTS

         The following table presents summarized unaudited pro forma 
operating results assuming that the Company had acquired MPS and NUS on 
September 29, 1997:

7.       SUBSEQUENT EVENT

         On February 3, 1999, the Company filed an amendment to its 
registration statement on Form S-3 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange 
Commission to offer up to 3,175,000 shares of common stock, par value $.01. 
Of this total, 1,000,000 shares were newly issued by the Company and 
2,175,000 outstanding shares were sold by selling stockholders. The Company 
and the selling stockholders have also granted the underwriters a 30-day 
option to purchase up to an aggregate of 476,250 additional shares solely to 
cover over-allotments, if any. The net proceeds from this offering to the 
Company are approximately $22,420,000 and will be used

                                       -8-

for the partial repayment of outstanding indebtedness, possible acquisitions

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

         EXCEPT FOR THE HISTORICAL INFORMATION CONTAINED BELOW, THE MATTERS 
DISCUSSED IN THIS SECTION ARE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS THAT INVOLVE A 
NUMBER OF RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES. THE COMPANY'S ACTUAL LIQUIDITY NEEDS, 
CAPITAL RESOURCES AND OPERATING RESULTS MAY DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THE 
DISCUSSION SET FORTH BELOW IN THESE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS.

OVERVIEW

         Tetra Tech, Inc. (the "Company") is a leading provider of 
specialized management consulting and technical services in three principal 
business areas: resource management, infrastructure and communications. As a 
specialized management consultant, the Company assists its clients in 
defining problems and developing innovative and cost-effective solutions. The 
Company's management consulting services are complemented by its technical 
services. These technical services, which implement solutions, include 
research and development, applied science, engineering and architectural 
design, construction management, and operations and maintenance. The 
Company's clients include a diverse base of public and private organizations 
located in the United States and internationally.

         Since its initial public offering in December 1991, the Company has 
increased the size and scope of its business and has expanded its service 
offerings through a series of strategic acquisitions and internal growth.

         The Company derives its gross revenues from fees from professional 
services. Its services are billed under various types of contracts with its 
clients, including:

         -    Fixed-price;

         -    Fixed-rate time and materials;

         -    Cost-reimbursement plus fixed fee; and

         -    Cost-reimbursement plus fixed and award fee.

         In the course of providing its services, the Company routinely 
subcontracts services. These subcontractor costs are passed through to 
clients and, in accordance with industry practice, are included in gross 
revenue. Because subcontractor services can change significantly from project 
to project, the Company believes net revenue, which is gross revenue less the 
cost of subcontractor services, is a more appropriate measure of its 
performance.

         The Company's cost of net revenue includes professional compensation 
and certain direct and indirect overhead costs such as rents, utilities and 
travel. Professional compensation represents the majority of these costs. The 
Company's selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses are comprised 
primarily of its corporate headquarters' costs related to the

                                       -10-

<PAGE>

executive offices, corporate accounting, information technology, marketing, 
and bid and proposal costs. These costs are generally unrelated to specific 
client projects. In addition, the Company includes amortization of certain 
intangible assets resulting from acquisitions in SG&A expenses.

         The Company provides its services to a diverse base of Federal, 
state and local government agencies, and private and international clients. 
The following table presents, for the periods indicated, the approximate 
percentage of net revenue attributable to these client sectors:

         Net revenue increased $35.6 million, or 66.3%, to $89.2 million for 
the three months ended January 3, 1999 from $53.7 million for the comparable 
prior year period. Net revenue attributable to entities acquired in fiscal 
1998 was approximately $26.8 million. All four client sectors continued to 
show net revenue increases in actual dollars. As a percentage of net revenue, 
a decrease in net revenue was realized in the Federal government sector while 
increases were realized in the private and international sectors. The 
percentage of net revenue realized from the state and local government sector 
remained relatively flat. The increase in the percentage of net revenue from 
the international sector was primarily attributable to the expansion of the 
communications build out in Brazil and the SGOC acquisition. Gross revenue 
increased $47.5 million, or 71.6%, to $114.0 million for the three months 
ended

                                       -11-

<PAGE>

January 3, 1999 from $66.4 million for the comparable prior year period. 
Gross revenue attributable to entities acquired in fiscal 1998 was 
approximately $33.4 million.

         Cost of net revenue increased $29.8 million, or 74.0%, to $70.2 
million for the three months ended January 3, 1999 from $40.3 million for the 
comparable prior year period. As a percentage of net revenue, cost of net 
revenue increased to 78.6% for the three months ended January 3, 1999 from 
75.2% for the comparable prior year period. This increase is primarily 
attributable to the volume increase in cost reimbursable contracts related to 
the NUS acquisition.

         SG&A expenses, inclusive of amortization, increased $2.87 million, 
or 44.4%, to $8.9 million for the three months ended January 3, 1999 from 
$6.1 million for the comparable prior year period. As a percentage of net 
revenue, SG&A expenses decreased to 9.9% for the three months ended January 
3, 1999 from 11.5% for the comparable prior year period. Although increased 
amortization costs were realized due to the fiscal 1998 acquisitions, 
increases in headquarters' costs were not commensurate to the net revenue 
growth.

         Net interest expense increased $0.6 million to $0.7 million for the 
three months ended January 3, 1999 from $0.1 million for the comparable prior 
year period. This increase was primarily attributable to interest on 
acquisition related borrowings on the Company's revolving credit facility.

         Income tax expense increased $1.0 million, or 32.9%, to $4.1 million 
for the three months ended January 3, 1999 from $3.1 million for the 
comparable prior year period. This increase was primarily attributable to 
higher income before income taxes.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         As of January 3, 1999, the Company's working capital was $83.4 
million, an increase of $6.4 million from October 4, 1998, of which cash and 
cash equivalents totaled $0.4 million. In addition, the Company has a credit 
agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with a bank which provides for a revolving 
credit facility (the "Facility") of $65.0 million. Under the Credit 
Agreement, the Company may also request standby letters of credit up to the 
aggregate sum of $20.0 million outstanding at any one time. The Credit 
Agreement provides for a mandatory reduction of $5.0 million on December 15, 
1999. The Facility matures on December 15, 2000 or earlier at the Company's 
discretion upon payment in full of loans and other obligations. As of January 
3, 1999, borrowings and standby letters of credit totaled $51.0 million and 
$1.4 million, respectively.

         In the three months ended January 3, 1999, cash used in operating 
activities was $7.6 million compared to $8.4 million for the comparable prior 
year period. The decrease is primarily attributable to the timing of payments 
for liabilities. The Company has targeted, as an immediate and ongoing 
practice, to increase its efficiency in the timing of billings and collection 
of receivables. For the three months ended January 3, 1999, cash used in 
investing activities was $1.3 million compared to $0.7 million for the 
comparable prior year period. The increase was due to increases in the 
capital expenditures. For the three months ended January 3, 1999, cash 

                                       -12-

<PAGE>

provided by financing activities was $4.4 million primarily from the proceeds 
of issuance of long-term debt compared to $2.2 million for the comparable 
prior year period.

         The Company continuously evaluates the marketplace for strategic 
acquisition opportunities. Once an opportunity is identified, the Company 
examines the effect an acquisition may have on the business environment, as 
well as on the Company's results of operations. The Company proceeds with an 
acquisition only if it determines that the acquisition is anticipated to have 
an accretive effect on future operations. However, as successful integration 
and implementation are essential to achieve favorable results, no assurances 
can be given that all acquisitions will provide accretive results. The 
Company's strategy is to position itself to address existing and emerging 
markets. The Company views acquisitions as a key component of its growth 
strategy, and intends to use both cash and its securities, as it deems 
appropriate, to fund such acquisitions.

         The Company expects that existing cash balances, internally 
generated funds, and availability under the Credit Agreement will be 
sufficient to meet the Company's capital requirements through the end of 
fiscal 1999. However, as acquisition opportunities present themselves, the 
Company may seek to expand its borrowing capabilities to accommodate such 
opportunities.

         The Company believes its operations have not been and, in the 
foreseeable future, do not expect to be materially adversely affected by 
inflation or changing prices.

YEAR 2000

         The Company is working to resolve the potential impact of the year 
2000 on its business operations and the ability of its computerized 
information systems to accurately process information that may be 
date-sensitive. Any of the Company's programs that recognize a date using 
"00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000 could result in errors or 
system failures.

         The Company utilizes a number of computer programs across its entire 
operation. The primary information technology (IT) systems the Company 
utilizes are (1) the accounting and financial systems which include general 
ledger, accounts payable, accounts receivable, billing and collection, fixed 
assets, job cost accounting and payroll, and (2) human resource information 
management systems. The Company does not believe it has a material amount of 
non-IT systems on which it relies.

         The Company has established both a year 2000 review committee and a 
year 2000 action team. The purpose of the review committee is to develop and 
communicate the Company's year 2000 plan to achieve its year 2000 compliance 
mission. The purpose of the action team is to identify, remediate and 
implement plans to resolve year 2000 related issues. Through the review 
committee and the action team, the Company is in the process of completing 
its full assessment of all issues relating to the year 2000. The Company has 
developed questionnaires regarding year 2000 readiness to be used internally 
and externally. It has completed its internal assessment and is in the 
process of assessing the year 2000 issues of its clients and vendors. The 
Company relies on certain software vendors who are the makers of year 2000 
compliance statements as they

                                       -13-

<PAGE>

apply to their specific software. The Company's references to the year 2000 
compliance status of these systems are republications of their statements. 
Based on the information collected to date, the Company does not believe that 
the cost of addressing its year 2000 issues will have a material adverse 
impact on its financial position. The Company plans to devote all resources 
required to resolve any significant year 2000 issues in a timely manner.

STATE OF READINESS

         The Company began its risk assessment in 1995. Since that time the 
Company has procured and implemented certain accounting and financial 
reporting systems as well as contract administration and billing systems that 
have been certified as year 2000 compliant by its vendors. Currently, 
approximately 74% of the Company's gross revenue is recognized on these year 
2000 compliant systems. The Company has successfully converted seven of its 
18 operating units to these year 2000 compliant systems. The Company is 
planning to convert four additional operating units by July 1999. The 
operating units that will not be converted to the systems currently in place 
are in the process of upgrading their existing systems to a year 2000 
compliant version or will procure and implement a year 2000 compliant 
software. In all cases, the Company believes that its financial and 
accounting systems will be year 2000 compliant in a timely manner and will 
not be materially impacted by the year 2000.

         The Company is currently installing a year 2000 compliant human 
resource information management system. Ten operating units including the 
Company's corporate units will be supported by this system. The anticipated 
completion date is April 1999. The Company plans to convert the remaining 
operating units following April 1999. In all cases, the Company believes that 
its human resource management information systems will be year 2000 compliant 
in a timely manner and will not be materially impacted by the year 2000.

         The Company has expended or obligated approximately $2.6 million on 
the procurement of these systems, the conversion of data from legacy systems 
to these systems, and on the implementation and testing of these systems.

         The Company has extensive business with the Federal government. 
Should the Federal government, specifically the Department of Defense, 
experience significant business interruptions relating to non-year 2000 
compliance, the Company could be materially impacted. To the extent that 
other third parties upon which the Company relies, such as banking 
institutions, clients and vendors, are unable to address their year 2000 
issues in a timely manner, the Company could be materially impacted. The 
Company believes that the worst case scenario relating to the year 2000 would 
be an extensive period of time in which the Federal government and other 
third parties could not process payments promptly.

RISKS

         The Company believes the risks associated with non-year 2000 
compliance include:

          -   the inability to invoice and process payments;

                                       -14-

<PAGE>

          -   the inability to produce accurate and timely financials;

          -   the impact on cash flow and working capital needs;

          -   the impact on profitability; and

          -   potential liability to third parties for not meeting contracted 
              deliverables.

CONTINGENCY PLANS

         The Company currently does not have formal contingency plans for the 
failure of its financial and accounting systems. The Company has substantial 
experience in the conversion process from multiple legacy systems to its 
vendor certified year 2000 systems. The Company has an experienced and 
dedicated staff to perform the functions identified and is reasonably 
confident that the projected conversions will be accomplished as projected.

         The Company currently does not have formal contingency plans for the 
failure of its human resource information management system. The Company's 
implementation strategy is to install the system as simply as possible, with 
little customization. The Company's vendor supports its implementation 
strategy and has agreed to a financial penalty if the implementation is not 
achieved within three months, or by April 1999. If the implementation is not 
achieved by April 1999, the Company believes there will still be sufficient 
time to meet the year 2000 deadline.

         The Company maintains, as a matter of policy and practice, 
mitigation plans in the event of systems failure which include regular backup 
of historical information.

EFFECT ON THE COMPANY'S BUSINESS, FINANCIAL CONDITION AND OPERATING RESULTS. 
UPON THE OCCURRENCE OF ANY OF THESE EVENTS, THE TRADING PRICE OF THE 
COMPANY'S COMMON STOCK COULD DECLINE.

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE COMPANY'S ACQUISITION STRATEGY

         A significant part of the Company's growth strategy is to acquire 
other companies that complement its lines of business or that broaden its 
geographic presence. During fiscal 1998, the Company purchased ten companies 
in five separate transactions. The Company expects to continue to acquire 
companies as an element of its growth strategy. Acquisitions involve certain 
risks that could cause the Company's actual growth or operating results to 
differ from its expectations or the expectations of security analysts. For 
example:

          -   The Company may not be able to identify suitable acquisition
              candidates or to acquire additional companies on favorable terms;

          -   The Company competes with others to acquire companies. Competition
              may increase and may result in decreased availability or increased
              price for suitable acquisition candidates;

          -   The Company may not be able to obtain the necessary financing, on
              favorable terms or at all, to finance any potential acquisitions;

          -   The Company may ultimately fail to consummate an acquisition even
              if announced that the Company plans to acquire a company;

          -   The Company may fail to successfully integrate or manage these
              acquired companies due to differences in business backgrounds or
              corporate cultures;

          -   These acquired companies may not perform as the Company expects;

                                       -16-

<PAGE>

          -   The Company may find it difficult to provide a consistent quality
              of service across its geographically diverse operations; and

          -   If the Company fails to successfully integrate any acquired
              company, its reputation could be damaged. This could make it more
              difficult to market its services or to acquire additional
              companies in the future.

In addition, the Company's acquisition strategy may divert management's 
attention away from its primary service offerings, result in the loss of key 
clients or personnel and expose the Company to unanticipated liabilities.

         Finally, acquired companies that derive a significant portion of 
their revenues from the Federal government and that do not follow the same 
cost accounting policies and billing procedures as the Company does may be 
subject to larger cost disallowances for greater periods than the Company. If 
the Company fails to determine the existence of unallowable costs and 
establish appropriate reserves in advance of an acquisition the Company may 
be exposed to material unanticipated liabilities, which could have a material 
adverse effect on the Company's business.

FLUCTUATIONS IN THE COMPANY'S QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS

         The Company's quarterly revenues, expenses and operating results may 
fluctuate significantly because of a number of factors, including:

          -   The seasonality of the spending cycle of public sector clients,
              notably the Federal government;

          -   Employee hiring and utilization rates;

          -   The number and significance of client engagements commenced and
              completed during a quarter;

          -   Delays incurred in connection with an engagement;

          -   The ability of clients to terminate engagements without penalties;

          -   The size and scope of engagements;

          -   The timing and size of the return on investment capital; and

          -   General economic and political conditions.

Variations in any of these factors could cause significant fluctuations in 
the Company's operating results from quarter to quarter and could result in 
net losses.

                                       -17-

POTENTIAL VOLATILITY OF THE COMPANY'S STOCK PRICE

         The trading price of the Company's Common Stock has fluctuated 
widely. In addition, in recent years the stock market has experienced extreme 
price and volume fluctuations. The overall market and the price of the 
Company's Common Stock may continue to fluctuate greatly. The trading price 
of the Company's Common Stock may be significantly affected by various 
factors, including:

          -   Quarter to quarter variations in the Company's operating results;

          -   Changes in environmental legislation;

          -   Changes in investors' and analysts' perception of the business
              risks and conditions of the Company's business;

          -   Broader market fluctuations; and

          -   General economic or political conditions.

MANAGEMENT OF GROWTH

         The Company is growing rapidly. Its growth presents numerous 
managerial, administrative, operational and other challenges. The Company's 
ability to manage the growth of its operations will require it to continue to 
improve its operational, financial and human resource management information 
systems and its other internal systems and controls. In addition, the 
Company's growth will increase its need to attract, develop, motivate and 
retain both its management and professional employees. The inability of the 
Company's management to manage its growth effectively or the inability of its 
employees to achieve anticipated performance or utilization levels, could 
have a material adverse effect on its business.

RELIANCE ON KEY PERSONNEL AND QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS

         The Company depends upon the efforts and skills of its executive 
officers, senior managers and consultants. With limited exceptions, the 
Company does not have employment agreements with any of these individuals. 
The loss of the services of any of these key personnel could adversely affect 
the Company's business. Although the Company has obtained non-compete 
agreements from the principal stockholders of each of the companies it has 
acquired, the Company generally does not have non-compete or employment 
agreements with key employees who were not equity holders of these companies. 
The Company does not maintain key-man life insurance policies on any of its 
executive officers or senior managers.

         The Company's future growth and success depends on its ability to 
attract and retain qualified scientists and engineers. The market for these 
professionals is competitive and the Company may not be able to attract and 
retain such professionals.

                                       -18-

<PAGE>

DEPENDENCE UPON EXISTING LAWS AND REGULATIONS

         A significant amount of the Company's resource management business 
is generated either directly or indirectly as a result of existing Federal 
and state governmental laws, regulations and programs. Any changes in these 
laws or regulations that reduce funding or affect the sponsorship of these 
programs could reduce the demand for the Company's services and could have a 
material adverse effect on its business.

CONCENTRATION OF REVENUES

         Agencies of the Federal government are among the Company's most 
significant clients. During the three months ended January 3, 1999, 
approximately 41.5% of the Company's net revenue was derived from federal 
agencies of which 22.8% was derived from the Department of Defense (DOD), 
14.4% from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and 3.0% from the 
Department of Energy (DOE). Some contracts with Federal government agencies 
require annual funding approval and may be terminated at their discretion. A 
reduction in spending by Federal government agencies could limit the 
continued funding of existing contracts with them and could limit the 
Company's ability to obtain additional contracts. These limitations, if 
significant, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business.

         Additionally, the failure of clients to pay significant amounts due 
the Company for its services could adversely affect the Company's business. 
For example, the Company recently received notification from a federal 
government agency that it is entitled to payments in excess of the Company's 
billings. However, the agency involved must obtain specific funding approval 
for amounts owed to the Company and there can be no assurance this funding 
approval will be obtained.

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH GOVERNMENTAL AUDITS

         Contracts with the Federal government and other governmental 
agencies are subject to audit. Most of these audits are conducted by the 
Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA), which reviews the Company's overhead 
rates, operating systems and cost proposals. The DCAA may disallow costs if 
it determines that the Company accounted for these costs incorrectly or in a 
manner inconsistent with Cost Accounting Standards. A disallowance of costs 
by the DCAA, or other governmental auditors, could have a material adverse 
effect on the Company's business.

         In September 1995, the Company acquired PRC Environmental 
Management, Inc. (EMI). EMI also contracts with Federal government agencies 
and such contracts are also subject to the same governmental audits. The DCAA 
has completed audits of EMI's contracts for the fiscal years 1987 through 
1995. As a result of these audits and negotiations with the DCAA, the DCAA 
disallowed approximately $2.9 million in costs.

FIXED-PRICE CONTRACTS

         The Company enters into various contracts with its clients, 
including fixed-price contracts. In the three months ended January 3, 1999, 
approximately 30.4% of the Company's net

                                       -19-

<PAGE>

revenue was derived from fixed-price contracts. Fixed-price contracts protect 
clients and expose the Company to a number of risks. These risks include 
underestimation of costs, problems with new technologies, unforeseen costs or 
difficulties, delays beyond the Company's control and economic and other 
changes that may occur during the contract period. If the Company incurs 
losses under fixed-price contracts it could have a material adverse effect on 
its business.

DEPENDENCE ON SUBCONTRACTORS

         Under some of its contracts, the Company depends on the efforts and 
skills of subcontractors for the performance of certain tasks. Reliance on 
subcontractors varies from project to project. In the three months ended 
January 3, 1999, subcontractor costs comprised 21.7% of the Company's gross 
revenue. The absence of qualified subcontractors with whom the Company has a 
satisfactory relationship could adversely affect the quality of its service 
and its ability to perform under some of its contracts.

SIGNIFICANT COMPETITION

         The Company provides specialized management consulting and technical 
services to a broad range of public and private sector clients. The market 
for the Company's services is highly competitive and it competes with many 
other firms. These firms range from small regional firms to large national 
firms which have greater financial and marketing resources than the Company.

         The Company focuses primarily on the resource management, 
infrastructure and communications business areas. The Company provides 
services to its clients which include Federal, state and local agencies, and 
organizations in the private sector.

         The Company competes for projects and engagements with a number of 
competitors which can vary from 10 to 100 firms. Historically, clients have 
chosen among competing firms based on the quality and timeliness of the 
firm's service. The Company believes, however, that price has become an 
increasingly important factor.

         The Company believes that its principal competitors include, in 
alphabetical order, Black & Veatch LLP; Brown & Caldwell; Castle Tower 
Corporation; Camp, Dresser & McKee; CH2M Hill Companies Ltd.; Dames & Moore 
Group; EA Engineering, Science & Technology, Inc.; Earth Tech, Inc.; ICF 
Kaiser International, Inc.; IT Group Inc.; Mastec, Inc.; Montgomery Watson; 
OSP Consultants, Inc.; Roy F. Weston, Inc.; and URS Greiner Corporation.

POTENTIAL LIABILITY AND INSURANCE

         The Company's services involve significant risks of professional and 
other liabilities which may substantially exceed the fees the Company derives 
from its services. The Company's business activities could expose it to 
potential liability under various environmental laws such as the 
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 
(CERCLA). In addition, the Company sometimes contractually assumes liability 
under indemnification agreements. The Company cannot predict the magnitude of 
such potential liabilities.

                                       -20-

<PAGE>

         The Company currently maintains comprehensive general liability, 
umbrella and professional liability insurance policies. The Company believes 
that its insurance policies are adequate for its business operations. These 
policies are "claims made" policies. Thus, only claims made during the term 
of the policy are covered. If the Company terminates its policies and does 
not obtain retroactive coverage, it would be uninsured for claims made after 
termination even if these claims are based on events or acts that occurred 
during the term of the policy. The Company's insurance may not protect the 
Company against liability because its policies typically have various 
exclusions and retentions. In addition, if the Company expands into new 
markets, it may not be able to obtain insurance coverage for such activities 
or, if insurance is obtained, the dollar amount of any liabilities incurred 
could exceed its insurance coverage. A partially or completely uninsured 
claim, if successful and of significant magnitude, could have a material 
adverse affect on the Company's business.

CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

         Many of the Company's clients are concerned about potential or 
actual conflicts of interest in retaining management consultants. Federal 
government agencies have formal policies against continuing or awarding 
contracts that would create actual or potential conflicts of interest with 
other activities of a contractor. These policies, among other things, may 
prevent the Company from bidding for or performing contracts resulting from 
or relating to certain work it has performed for the government. In addition, 
services performed for a private client may create a conflict of interest 
that precludes or limits the Company's ability to obtain work from other 
public or private organizations. The Company has, on occasion, declined to 
bid on projects because of these conflicts of interest issues.

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS

         In the three months ended January 3, 1999, approximately 5% of the 
Company's net revenue was derived from the international marketplace. Some 
contracts with the Company's international clients are denominated in foreign 
currencies. As such, these contracts contain inherent risks including foreign 
currency exchange risk and the risk associated with expatriating funds from 
foreign countries. If the Company's international revenue increases, its 
exposure to foreign currency fluctuations will also increase. The Company has 
entered into forward exchange contracts to address foreign currency 
fluctuations.

YEAR 2000

         The Company is working to resolve the potential impact of the year 
2000 on its business operations and the ability of its computerized 
information systems to accurately process information that may be 
date-sensitive. Any of its programs that recognize a date using "00" as the 
year 1900 rather than the year 2000 could result in errors or system failures.

         The Company utilizes a number of computer programs across its entire 
operation. The primary information technology systems the Company utilizes 
are the accounting and financial and human resource information management 
systems. The Company began its risk assessment

                                       -21-

<PAGE>

in 1995. Since that time the Company has procured and implemented certain 
accounting and financial reporting systems as well as contract administration 
and billing systems that have been certified as year 2000 compliant by its 
vendors. Currently, approximately 72% of the Company's gross revenue is 
recognized on these year 2000 compliant systems. The Company believes that 
its financial and accounting and human resource management information 
systems will be year 2000 compliant in a timely manner and will not be 
materially impacted by the year 2000. The Company may fail, however, in 
updating its various systems to be year 2000 compliant in a timely manner.

         The Company has extensive business with the Federal government. 
Should the Federal government, especially the DOD, experience significant 
business interruptions relating to non-year 2000 compliance, the Company's 
business could be materially impacted. To the extent that other third parties 
upon which the Company relies, such as banking institutions, clients and 
vendors, are unable to address their year 2000 issues in a timely manner, its 
business could be materially impacted. The Company believes that the worst 
case scenario relating to the year 2000 would be an extensive period of time 
in which the Federal government and other third parties could not process 
payments promptly, in addition to the Company's financial institutions not 
being able to supply the Company with its working capital needs.

         Additional risks associated with non-year 2000 compliance include:

          -   The Company's inability to invoice and process payments;

          -   The Company's inability to produce accurate and timely financials;

          -   The impact on the Company's profitability; and

          -   The Company's potential liability to third parties for not 
              meeting contracted deliverables.

IMPACT OF ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS ON OUR STOCK PRICE

         The Company's certificate of incorporation and by-laws and the 
Delaware General Corporation Law include provisions that may be deemed to 
have anti-takeover effects. These anti-takeover effects could delay or 
prevent a takeover attempt the Company's other stockholders might consider in 
their best interests.

         In addition, the Company's board of directors is authorized to 
issue, without obtaining stockholder approval, up to 2,000,000 shares of 
preferred stock and to determine the price, rights, preferences and 
privileges of such shares without any further stockholder action. The 
existence of this "blank-check" preferred stock could make more difficult or 
discourage an attempt to obtain control of the Company by means of a tender 
offer, merger, proxy contest or otherwise.

         In the future, the Company may adopt other measures that may have 
the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing an unsolicited takeover, even 
if such a change in control were

                                       -22-

<PAGE>

at a premium price or favored by a majority of unaffiliated stockholders. 
Certain of these measures may be adopted without any further vote or action 
by the stockholders.
