*Income  taxes,  net income and  earnings  per share for the three  quarters  of
fiscal year 1995 have been restated from the amounts  previously  reported.  The
restatements  reflect a correction in the effective annual income tax rate which
has been  applied to the  respective  fiscal year  quarters.  The effects of the
restatements  were  reductions to net income of $30,000,  $29,000 and $24,000 or
$.02, $.02 and $.01 per share in the quarters ended December 31, 1994, March 31,

               Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statement

                                  June 30, 1996


1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been
prepared in accordance  with the  instruction  to Form 10-Q and therefore do not
include all  information  and  footnotes  necessary for a fair  presentation  of
financial  position,  results of operations,  and cash flows in conformity  with
generally accepted accounting principles.

It should be understood  that the foregoing  interim results are not necessarily
indicative  of the  results  of  operations  for the  full  fiscal  year  ending
September  30, 1996 due in part to  increased  reliance on  estimates at interim
dates.

Item 2.  Management Discussion and Analysis of the Results of Operation

Total  revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 1996 (third  quarter fiscal 1996)
increased  0.8% as  compared to the third  quarter of fiscal 1995 and  increased
0.6% as compared to the previous  quarter.  Operating  revenues  (total revenues
excluding pass-through costs) increased 3.6% as compared to the third quarter of
fiscal 1995 and increased 1.1% as compared to the previous quarter.

Pass-through  costs,  expressed as a percentage of total revenues,  increased to
27.9% as  compared to 25.1% in the third  quarter of fiscal  1995 and  increased
from 24.3% in the previous  quarter.  Pass-through  costs will vary depending on
the need for specialty subconsultants and governmental subcontract requirements.

Cost of services,  expressed as a percentage of operating revenues, decreased to
89.0% for the third  quarter of fiscal  1996 from 89.4% in the third  quarter of
fiscal 1995 and decreased  from 90.0% in the previous  quarter.  The decrease in
this  percentage  from  the  third  quarter  fiscal  1995  was  due to  overhead
efficiencies.  The decrease from the second quarter of 1996 was primarily due to
the severe weather  conditions in the Northeast  which had  negatively  impacted
revenues in that quarter.

General and  administrative  expense,  expressed  as a  percentage  of operating
revenue,  is 7.1% in the third  quarter of fiscal 1996 and is  comparable to the
6.9% recorded in the third quarter of fiscal 1995 and the previous quarter.

The interest in an architectural  joint venture changed from a profit of $54,000
in the third quarter of fiscal 1995 to a loss of $12,000 in the third quarter of
fiscal 1996.  The Company has chosen to wind-down and  eventually  terminate the
joint venture. The Company expects the joint venture to break-even at the end of
the wind-down phase.

Interest, expressed as a percentage of operating revenues, decreased to 1.9% for
the third  quarter of fiscal 1996 from 2.2% of the third  quarter of fiscal 1995
and 2.2% the previous  quarter.  The decrease from the previous quarters was due
to lower  borrowings  which  decreased  interest  costs by $33,000  and  $39,000
respectively.

<PAGE>


Income tax  expense  for the third  quarter of fiscal  1996 was 56.9% of pre-tax
income compared to a restated 58.4% in the third quarter of fiscal 1995.

Earnings  per common  share for the third  quarter  of fiscal  1996 were 8 cents
based on 1,877,512 shares  outstanding  versus the 5 cents for the third quarter
of fiscal 1995 based on 1,821,246 shares outstanding.

Financial Condition
Working  capital  increased to  $9,166,000  from the  $8,992,000 in the previous
quarter.  Capital resources available to the Company include an existing line of
credit for  working  capital.  The current  limit is a maximum of $16.5  million
based on accounts  receivable and  work-in-progress  of which approximately $4.7
million is currently available. The Company believes the existing line of credit
is adequate to meet the financial needs of the Company.  The Company is planning
to continue  its program of  purchasing  computer-assisted  design and  drafting
equipment.

The Company's backlog remains strong at approximately $102 million.
