maintenance services contracts totaling $5.1 million.  The services will be
provided for several regional and nationwide customers over periods ranging

enterprise maintenance revenues continue to grow at a healthy pace.  The
Halifax service delivery model is working well and has helped position the
Company for additional future expansion."

outsourcer," working to establish relationships with leading integrators and
to offer its IT and enterprise maintenance services on an outsourced basis to
a wider base of customers.  Several of the new contracts resulted from
relationships with large integrators, and the Company is actively pursuing
additional relationships with global service providers serving both public and
private sector clients.
