                           �540,000 ANPR Contract Win


Appian Technology plc, the AIM listed provider of Automatic Number Plate
Recognition systems ('ANPR') and traffic management products and solutions, has
won a �540,000 contract with a major national police force in the UK to install
a new ANPR system.  This new system will be capable of processing in excess of
20 million vehicle license plates a day, providing the police and other security
agencies with vital intelligence to help fight against serious and organised
crime.  Importantly, this is the first phase of a larger two phase contract,
which is expected to be completed within 12 months.


The Company will be replacing an existing ANPR system with over 200 of its new,
high performance Cobra ANPR cameras at strategic sites and police stations.  It
will also be supplying its Talon ANPR software, which will be used for number
plate recognition processing.  All plate data will be transmitted to a central
point and collated.


Appian Chairman Pat Ryan said, "This was a highly competitive bid process, which
we won as a direct result of our experience and market leadership in large scale
national ANPR surveillance systems. In addition, our Talon ANPR software and
recently developed Cobra cameras were demonstrably better than competing
solutions.  Finally, a critical factor in this contract win was customer visits
to a number of Appian's existing UK Police customers, where we were highly
recommended and had glowing commendations!"
