    For Immediate Release                                        30 May 2003
                                                                             
                                        
                      Axon makes a solid start to the year
                                        

Axon, the Business Transformation Services company, reported continued success
and profitable growth at its Annual General Meeting held today.

Barbara Thomas, Chairman, made the following comments regarding current trading:

"Axon provides business transformation services to $1bn+ corporations that have
chosen SAP as their Enterprise Platform and our strategic objective is to be the
partner of choice in that market.  We entered 2003 with a solid foundation for
the year based on our complete business transformation offering and the major
contract wins we secured in 2002.  In addition, SAP's significant market share
gains over the year continued to validate the strategy we have adopted since our
company's formation.


"Progress in 2003 has so far been to plan with steady profitable growth based on
major long term client relationships.  We support more organizations in our
target market than any other company in the country and SAP recently confirmed
our leadership position by awarding us first place in two of the four Partner of
the Year awards and runner up in a third.


"The market for our services continues to evolve and consolidate with most
interest being in the Transport, Utilities and Public Sectors.  We continue to
market and sell end-to-end business solutions, and are competing for more than
one eight-figure contract.  Since the start of this year we have already won two
seven-figure contracts and a number of smaller contracts.


"We are operating in a tough, but stabilising market.  We continue to deliver
against our customer's requirements; we are making good progress towards winning
new customers and anticipate a satisfactory outcome for the full year.


"I would finally like to say that I have enjoyed my tenure as non-executive
Chairman and I look forward to working with Mark and the rest of the Board as
senior non-executive director in the years to come."
