                          Significant new contract wins


Axon Group plc, the business transformation consultancy, today provided an
update on current trading and changes within its board.

Mark Hunter, Chief Executive Officer, said:

"Our strategy is to deliver business transformation programmes for $1bn+
corporations that have SAP as their strategic platform. This strategy delivered
a great set of results for the first half of 2003, and we are confident of
meeting market expectations for the full year.

"Since our Interim statement in September, we have formally signed the
previously announced $16m contract with the Qatar Foreign Ministry to create a
limousine company in Qatar to support the 2006 Asian Olympics. In the last three
months, we have also won a significant business transformation programme with a
large consumer goods organisation, as well as signing major contracts with
organisations such as the Police Information Technology Organisation (PITO), Al
Rajhi and a leading UK police authority.

"As part of the ongoing plan to strengthen the board, I am pleased to announce
the appointment of Steve Cardell as Chief Operating Officer with immediate
effect. Steve was the managing director of Bywater, the business consultancy
that we acquired in 2001, and in the last two years he has enjoyed considerable
success as Axon's commercial director. I welcome him to the plc board and have
every confidence in his continuing success.

"We have a strong order book and healthy sales pipeline, and we look forward to
2004 with enthusiasm."
