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

The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that are subject
to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those anticipated by such statements.  These statements use
words such as "believe," "anticipate," "estimate," or "future," or are
otherwise stated as the Company's predictions for the future.  These
statements, as with any predictions of the future, involve certain risk
factors beyond the Company's control.  The Company's actual results may
differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking
statements, and any such differences could have a material negative impact on
the Company's share price.  Factors that might cause such a difference
include, but are not limited to, a decrease in demand for the Company's
products, delays in the timely availability of new features and releases of
the Company's products, a too-rapid increase in the


                                     Page 8

<PAGE>


Company's level of spending, actions taken by competitors, technological
changes, those herein identified, , and other factors identified from time to
time as risks in the Company's forms and reports filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission.

TOTAL REVENUES

The Company's revenues are derived from software license fees, services and
post-contract customer support ("PCS"), and hardware sales.  Total revenues
for the second quarter of 2000 were $11.1 million, which represented a
decrease of 3.9% from second quarter 1999 total revenues of $11.5 million.
For the first six months of 2000, total revenues were $21.4 million, down
3.8% compared to 1999 total revenues of $22.2 million for the same period.
The decrease in total revenues for the three- and six-month periods was due
primarily to a decrease in software license fees.

International revenues were $1.2 million in the second quarter of 2000,
compared to international revenues of $2.4 million in the second quarter of
1999.  International revenues represented 11.0% of total revenues for the
second quarter of 2000 compared to 20.5% in the same period of 1999.
International revenues decreased for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 compared
to the second quarter of 1999 due primarily to the completion of two large
European projects which were not replaced with projects of comparable size.
The Company believes that international revenues may increase slightly or
remain the same.

SOFTWARE LICENSE FEES

Software license fee revenues consist of revenues from software license
agreements for the Company's products, related add-on products, and third
party software.  The second quarter of 2000 software license fee revenues of
$2.2 million represented a decrease of 30.2% over second quarter of 1999
software license fee revenues of $3.2 million.  For the first six months of
2000, license fee revenues of $4.6 million represented a decrease of 23.7%
compared to 1999 license fee revenues of $6.1 million for the same period.
This decrease was attributable to lower sales and installation activity, in
addition to the impact of turnover in the Company's sales force.  The Company
believes that license fee revenues may increase in the future due to
increased worldwide sales and marketing efforts, including hiring new sales
personnel, the introduction of new products, and efforts to deliver standard
packaged solutions that meet the requirements of its vertical markets.

The Company follows the software revenue recognition practices set forth in
Statement of Position 97-2, "Software Revenue Recognition," issued by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.  For projects requiring
"significant" modifications to the Company's products, the Company uses
contract accounting procedures based upon percentage of completion to
recognize revenue, provided that such amounts are reasonably collectable.
Revenue for projects with few or no modifications are recognized upon
reaching contract milestones, to the extent that payment is fixed and
determinable and considered collectable.

SERVICES AND PCS

Services and PCS revenues are derived from software modifications,
professional services, and PCS agreements.  Services and PCS revenues
increased 14.1% to $6.9 million in the second quarter of 2000, up from $6.1
million in the second quarter of 1999.  For the six-month period ended June
30, 2000, services and PCS revenues were $13.2 million, an increase of
$493,000, or 3.9%, over revenues of $12.7 million for the first six months of
1999.  The components of services and PCS revenues as a percentage of total
revenues in the second quarter of 2000 were 13.7% for software modifications,
29.7% for professional services, and 19.4 % for PCS agreements compared with
11.7%, 26.4%, and 14.8%,


                                   Page 9

<PAGE>

respectively, in the second quarter of 1999.  Services and PCS revenues
increased in the second quarter of 2000 due to the combined effect of multi-
site rollouts for existing customers, upgrades to new releases of the
Company's products, implementation of the Company's products at new customer
sites, and renewals of PCS agreements.

Software modifications are determined during the customer's Conference Room
Pilot (CRP) and consist of changes to the software to facilitate specific
functionality desired by the customer.  The Company believes that as the
number of new contracts increases, future modification revenues as a
percentage of total revenues may decrease due to the increased functionality
of new releases of the Company's products; however, the relationship is
dependent upon the variety of modifications that the individual customer
specifies.

Professional services revenues are derived from training, technical services,
performance of the CRP, project management, and implementation services.
Professional services revenues are based on the number of days of work
actually performed.  The increase in professional services revenue for the
second quarter of 2000 was due to an effort on the part of the Company to
sell upgrades, training, and other services to existing customers.  The
Company believes that future professional services revenues may increase as
new customer contracts are signed.

Customers typically enter into an agreement for PCS at the time they first
license the Catalyst WMS and, once installed, pay for the first year of PCS
in advance.  PCS revenues are recognized ratably over the term of the PCS
agreement.  The increase in PCS revenues for the second quarter of 2000 was
due primarily to growth in the installed customer base for the Company's
products and current customers renewing their PCS agreements. The Company
believes that PCS revenues may increase in the future as more of the
Company's products are implemented, resulting in the execution of
corresponding PCS agreements and renewal of existing PCS agreements.

HARDWARE

Hardware revenues consist primarily of computer hardware, radio frequency
equipment, and printers that the Company sold to its customers on behalf of
hardware and other equipment manufacturers.  Hardware revenues decreased
$340,000 to $1.9 million in the second quarter of 2000 from $2.2 million
during the same period of 1999.  Hardware sales represented 16.8% of total
revenues in the first half of 2000 compared to 15.8% for the same period in
1999.  Hardware sales in 1999 were higher due to a multi-site equipment sale
to one major customer.

COST OF SOFTWARE LICENSE FEES

Cost of software license fees consists of the cost of third-party software
products sold by the Company.  In the second quarter of 2000, the cost of
software license fees increased slightly to $236,000 from $233,000 in the
second quarter of 1999.  Year to date cost of software license fees decreased
by less than 1.0% to $379,000 in 2000 from $380,000 in 1999, reflecting
consistency in third party software sales.  The Company anticipates that the
cost of software license fees for third-party software should decrease in the
future as a percentage of total software license fee revenues and remain
relatively constant as a percentage of related third-party software revenues.

COST OF SERVICES AND PCS

Cost of services and PCS consists primarily of personnel and related costs
for the performance of


                                    Page 10

<PAGE>


software modifications, professional services, and PCS.  The cost of services
and PCS increased 11.4% to $4.2 million in the second quarter of 2000 from
$3.8 million for the second quarter of 1999.  However, as a percentage of
services and PCS revenues, the cost of services and PCS decreased slightly to
60.4% for the second quarter of 2000 from 61.8% for the second quarter of
1999.  Year to date cost of services and PCS increased 10.5% to $8.4 million
in 2000 from $7.6 million for the same period in 1999 and increased as a
percent of related revenues to 64.1% at June 30, 2000 from 60.3% at June 30,
1999.  The cost of services and PCS increased due to the allocation of
technical resources which were previously utilized in product development
activities.

COST OF HARDWARE

Cost of hardware consists primarily of the cost of computer hardware, radio
frequency equipment, and printers sold by the Company on behalf of the
equipment manufacturers.  The Company does not inventory, service, or
discount hardware items, but makes them available to customers who desire a
turnkey solution.  Cost of hardware in the second quarter of 2000 was $1.5
million compared to $1.8 million for the second quarter of 1999.  The
decrease in cost is attributable to the decrease in sales of hardware.

PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT

Product development costs are expenses associated with research and
development, including costs of engineering personnel and related development
expenses such as software tools, training, and documentation.  Product
development expenses as a percentage of total revenues for the second quarter
of 2000 decreased to 12.4% from 20.2% in the second quarter of 1999.  Actual
product development expenses were $1.4 million in the second quarter of 2000
and $2.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000, representing a
decrease of 41.1% and 28.8%, respectively.  The decrease in product
development costs was primarily due to the completion in 1999 of the
Company's efforts to develop Release 8.0 of the Company's WMS product, along
with redirection of technical resources previously assigned to development
efforts.  The Company continues to expense all software development costs
related to its WMS product as incurred.  The Company believes that product
development costs may increase in the future due to expenses related to
partnering initiatives and as the development of the products to be offered
by Catalyst-Exchange.com, Inc. accelerates.

SALES AND MARKETING

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries and commissions
paid to sales personnel, along with marketing, promotional, and travel
expenses.  Sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of total revenues for
the second quarter of 2000 increased to 23.8% from 17.7% in the second
quarter of 1999.  Actual sales and marketing expenses increased to $2.6
million in the second quarter of 2000 compared to $2.0 million in the second
quarter of 1999 and increased to $4.6 million for the six months ended June
30, 2000 compared to $3.6 million for the same period in 1999.  The increase
in sales and marketing expense as a percentage of total revenues and in
actual sales and marketing expenses was primarily due to increased trade show
and promotional activities, the addition of sales and marketing personnel,
and a charge for severance to a former executive.  The Company expects that
sales and marketing expenses will increase as a percentage of total revenues
with the broadening of marketing efforts in the mid-tier and Internet
fulfillment markets.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of the salaries of
administrative, executive, finance, and quality assurance personnel.  General
and administrative expenses as a percentage of total


                                     Page 11

<PAGE>


revenues for the second quarter of 2000 decreased to 5.9% from 11.8% in the
second quarter of 1999.  Actual general and administrative expenses decreased
to $654,000 in the second quarter of 2000 from $1.4 million in the second
quarter of 1999.  The second quarter of 1999 included a charge to
compensation expense for the former CFO and employee procurement expenses
which were not present in the second quarter of 2000.  For the six-month
period, general and administrative expenses were $1.6 million for 2000
compared to $2.4 million for 1999.  The Company expects that general and
administrative expenses may increase in the future, but should continue to
decrease as a percentage of total revenues.

OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSE

Other income and expense consists primarily of interest income and interest
expense and does not have a material impact on operating results.  The
Company expects other income and expense to remain relatively constant in the
future and expects interest income may increase due to additional invested
cash balances and higher interest rates earned.

INCOME TAX EXPENSE

No federal or state tax expense was recorded for the quarters or six-month
periods ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 due to the Company's federal and state
net operating loss position.  No deferred tax expense was recorded in the
quarters ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 as the Company continues to have a
substantial net operating loss carryforward.  The Company recorded a
valuation allowance to reserve for the net deferred tax assets.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Net cash provided by operating activities was $1.6 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2000, compared to $46,000 during the six months ended June 30,
1999.  The increase during this period was due primarily to the decrease in
accounts receivable offset somewhat by an accounts payable decrease.

Cash used for investing activities increased to $1.1 million during the six
months ended June 30, 2000 from $952,000 during the six months ended June 30,
1999 due to increased equipment and leasehold improvement purchases.

Financing activities generated cash of $758,000 in the first six months of
2000 compared to $71,000 in the first six months of 1999.  The increase in
net cash provided by financing activities in 2000 was due to an increase in
proceeds from the exercise of stock options.

As of June 30, 2000, the Company had $22.4 million in cash and cash
equivalents, which consisted primarily of investments in commercial paper,
money market funds, corporate debt securities, and repurchase agreements.  In
addition, the Company has a $5.0 million line of credit (the "Revolving
Credit Facility") with Bank One, Milwaukee, Wisconsin.  As of June 30, 2000,
there were no amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility.

Accounts receivable was $9.3 million as of June 30, 2000.  This compares to
$10.1 million at December 31, 1999.  The decrease from the December 31, 1999
balance was due to an improvement in the collection cycle.  Days sales
outstanding was 75 at June 30, 2000 compared to 98 at December 31, 1999.  At
June 30, 2000, the Company had reserves for doubtful accounts of $1.0 million
and feels it has adequately provided for any risks known or anticipated at
this time.

Longer term cash requirements, other than normal operating expenses, are
anticipated for the

development of new software products, enhancement of existing products, and
the financing of anticipated growth.  The Company believes that its existing
cash, cash equivalents, and available Revolving Credit Facility, along with
anticipated cash generated from operations, should be sufficient to satisfy
its cash requirements for at least the next twelve months.

On April 18, 2000, the Company announced the formation of a separate wholly
owned subsidiary known as Catalyst-Exchange.com, Inc., which was incorporated
on May 3, 2000.  Catalyst-Exchange.com, Inc. was formed to deliver a true
Business-to-Business product and service offering for the retail and consumer
packaged goods industries.  Catalyst-Exchange.com, Inc. earned no revenues
in the second quarter of 2000, nor did it incur any material expenses during
that period.

The Company has never paid cash dividends on its common stock.  The Company's
policy has been to retain cash from operations to provide funds for the
operation and expansion of its business.  Accordingly, the Company does not
anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company does not believe it has material exposure to market risk with
respect to any of its investments as the Company does not use market rate
sensitive instruments for trading or other purposes.  For purposes of the
Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, the Company considers all highly
liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to
be cash equivalents.  Cash equivalents consist principally of investments in
commercial paper, money market funds, corporate debt securities, and
repurchase agreements.  The cost of these securities, which are considered as
"available for sale" for financial reporting purposes, approximates fair
value at both June 30, 2000 and 1999.  There were no realized gains or losses
in the periods ended June 30, 2000 or 1999.


PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In 1999, a former customer (the "Claimant") instituted an arbitration
proceeding against the Company with the American Arbitration Association in
Milwaukee, Wisconsin.  The Claimant attempts to revoke its acceptance of the
Company's product alleging breach of warranty.  The Claimant seeks relief in
the form of monetary damages.  The Company believes that the allegations of
the Claimant are without merit and intends to vigorously defend against them.
The potential outcome for this legal proceeding cannot be determined at this
time and accordingly, no estimate for such potential settlement and
arbitration costs has been included in the accompanying financial statements.
