  Wins Contracts Totalling �510,000 for UK Critical Infrastructure Protection



Appian Technology plc, the AIM listed provider of Automatic Number Plate
Recognition systems ('ANPR') and traffic management products and solutions, has
won contracts totalling �510,000 to equip a number of UK police forces and
security agencies with its ANPR systems.



Appian has won three new airport contracts worth �275,000 to supply fixed site
ANPR technology to monitor and secure a major international airport in the north
of England, an international airport in the Midlands and a large regional
airport in the south of England. The Company is now the dominant ANPR supplier
to the UK airport market, with a total of seven airports using its Talon ANPR
technology.



Additionally, the Company has been awarded two contracts worth circa �195,000 to
install its ANPR systems in two UK city centres, which will be operated by the
police and used for crime reduction and counter terrorist initiatives.
Furthermore, the Company has won contracts to equip the UK rail network and
supply a military air base with portable ANPR systems worth �40,000.



Appian Chairman Pat Ryan said, "These orders underpin the progress we have made
and give us further confidence in our ability to drive growth. We have seen a
strong rise in demand for our ANPR technology used in fixed site applications,
particularly from the UK market. The combination of outstanding ANPR
performance, expertise in complex delivery and project management has resulted
in this quick succession of major contract wins."
