                               SM&A CORPORATION
                             EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

     This EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is entered into as of
                                      ---------
February 1, 2000, by and between SM&A CORPORATION, a California corporation
("SM&A"), and STEVEN S. MYERS ("Employee"), with reference to the following:
  ----                          --------

     A.  SM&A desires to employ Employee on the terms and conditions set forth
herein;

     B.  Employee desires to perform services for SM&A as an employee of SM&A on
the terms and conditions set forth herein.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration for the promises and obligations set forth
below, SM&A and Employee agree as follows:

1.   Employment and Term.
     -------------------

     1.1  SM&A agrees to employ, and Employee agrees to be employed by SM&A, on
the terms and conditions described below (the "Employment").
                                               ----------

     1.2  This Agreement shall be effective as of February 1, 2000 (the
"Effective Date") and shall, unless sooner terminated pursuant to the terms set
 --------------
forth below, terminate on January 31, 2003.

2.  Duties.
    ------

     2.1  Employee agrees that during the Employment, Employee shall devote his
full-time efforts to his duties as an employee of SM&A, now or in the future
assigned to Employee by SM&A. From and after the date of this Agreement,
Employee shall serve as Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of
SM&A. The parties further acknowledge that the Employee is ultimately
responsible to the Board of Directors of SM&A. Employee agrees to continue to
serve without additional compensation, if, from time to time he is elected or
appointed thereto, in one or more offices as a Director or member of any
committee of the Board of Directors of SM&A or of any direct or indirect
subsidiary of SM&A.

3.  Compensation.
    ------------

     3.1  As consideration for said performance and duties of adherence to the
covenants in this Agreement, Employee shall be entitled to the compensation set
forth on Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference
         ---------
(the "Compensation").
      ------------

     3.2  Employee understands and acknowledges that, except as otherwise set
forth in this Agreement, the Compensation will constitute the full and exclusive
consideration to be received by Employee for all services performed by Employee
in connection with SM&A's employment of Employee, and for the performance of all
his promises and obligations under this Agreement.

                                       1

     3.3  Aside from the Compensation, SM&A may adopt, or continue in force,
benefit plans for the benefit of its employees or certain of its employees which
may include, but not be limited to, group life insurance, medical insurance,
etc. SM&A may terminate any or all such plans at any time and may choose not to
adopt any additional or replacement plans. Employee's rights under any benefit
plans now in force or later adopted by SM&A shall be governed solely by the
terms of such plans; provided, however, that in no event shall Employee's rights
under any such benefit plans be less than those of any other executive officer
SM&A.

4.   Duty to Devote Full Time and Avoid Conflict of Interest.  Employee agrees
     -------------------------------------------------------
that during the Employment he shall devote his full-time efforts to his duties
as an employee of SM&A.  Employee further agrees that during the Employment he
shall not, directly or indirectly, engage or participate in any activities which
are in conflict with the best interests of SM&A.

5.   Compliance with Rules and Regulations.  Employee agrees to comply with
     -------------------------------------
SM&A's rules, regulations and practices, including but not limited to those
rules concerning vacation and sick leave, as they may from time to time be
adopted or modified, so long as they are uniformly applied to all employees.

6.   Non-competition and Non-solicitation by Employee.
     ------------------------------------------------

     6.1  Employee agrees that, during the Employment, Employee will not engage
in any activity competitive with or adverse to SM&A's business or welfare,
whether alone, as a partner, or as an officer, director, employee or shareholder
of any other corporation and shall not otherwise undertake planning for or the
organization of any business activity competitive with SM&A's business or
combine or conspire with other employees or representatives of SM&A for the
purpose of organizing any such competitive business activity. This prohibition
shall not include ownership of less than five percent (5%) of the outstanding
stock by Employee in a publicly traded corporation.

     6.2  For a period of two (2) years following the termination of the
Employment, Employee shall not induce, solicit or influence or attempt to
induce, solicit or influence any person who is engaged as an employee or
otherwise by SM&A or any client of SM&A, to terminate his or her employment or
other engagement with SM&A.

7.   Trade Secrets of SM&A.  Employee acknowledges and understands that during
     ---------------------
the Employment, Employee will have access to and will utilize and review
information which constitutes valuable, important and confidential trade
secrets, as that term is interpreted under the Uniform Trade Secrets Act
(California Civil Code Section 3426 et seq.) and/or confidential and proprietary
material and information of or relating to the business of SM&A necessary for
the successful conduct of SM&A's business.  This information includes, but is
not limited to: (a) listings of and data regarding the Clients (past and
current); (b) information regarding potential customers and clients; (c) data
relating to the identity of the Clients of SM&A; (d) information regarding
bidding, billing and pricing practices; (e) information regarding the nature and
type of services rendered to the Clients; (f) other methodologies, computer
programs, databases, processes, compilations of information, results of
proposals, job notes, reports and records, and (g) information regarding the
nature and type of software products sold to or under development with Clients
of SM&A (all of which information is sometimes referred to in this Agreement as

                                       2
<PAGE>

the "Secrets").  The foregoing notwithstanding, Secrets shall not include
     -------
information or data which is (i) in the public domain, (ii) generally known in
the information technology staffing services industry, (iii) already known to
Employee as of the date he began his employment with SM&A, or (iv) rightfully
disclosed to Employee outside of the scope of his employment with SM&A by a
third party not under a duty of confidentiality to SM&A.  Employee understands
further that the Secrets have been and will be accumulated, by Employee and
other personnel at SM&A at considerable expense to SM&A (including but not
limited to compensation paid to SM&A personnel dealing with the Secrets and the
Clients), and that SM&A has and will continue to expend its resources in order
to maintain actively and vigorously the confidentiality of the Secrets, as such
information is extremely valuable to SM&A, and well worth the expense of
enforcement and preservation of such confidentiality.  Accordingly, Employee
agrees as follows:

          (a)  All of the Secrets shall be safeguarded and treated as
     confidential by Employee.

          (b)  Any and all data, notes, letters, computer programs, email
     records, reports, telephone records and all other written documentation
     relating to the business of SM&A (including but not limited to the Secrets)
     that may be collected, compiled, written, reviewed or conceived by
     Employee, whether set forth in tangible media or intangible, from or by
     reason of services performed by Employee for SM&A shall become the absolute
     property of SM&A, and Employee shall not assert or establish a claim for
     any statutory or common law right or any other possessory or proprietary
     right with respect to any of the above. The foregoing notwithstanding, upon
     the termination of the Employment, Employee may (i) at his own expense,
     make and retain copies of records pertaining to investment banking contacts
     (including analysts and mergers and acquisitions), commercial banking
     contacts, independent public accounting contacts, legal contacts or other
     contacts in the investment community (buy-side and sell-side) to the extent
     that such records do not constitute trade secrets of SM&A and (ii) retain
     closing binders for financings and acquisitions previously furnished to
     him; provided, however, that Employee shall ensure that SM&A retains a copy
     of all such records and closing binders; and provided further, that
     Employee shall be obligated to maintain the information contained in any
     closing binder retained by him as confidential to the extent that such
     information constitutes Secrets.

          (c)  Employee shall hold the Secrets in strictest confidence and shall
     not (i) disclose any Secrets to any person, corporation, firm, or other
     entity, either during the Employment or afterward, or (ii) use any Secrets
     in Employee's subsequent business or employment, without the prior express
     written authorization of SM&A; provided, however, that Employee may
     disclose Secrets to the extent required to do so by a subpoena lawfully
     issued in a judicial proceeding or arbitration.

          (d)  Employee shall not otherwise commit any act which shall
     compromise the confidentiality of any Secrets, including but not limited to
     making a copy of such property (whether electronic, paper or otherwise)
     without the prior express written authorization of SM&A, except as
     permitted by Section 7(b) above.

8.   Confidential Information of Clients.  All ideas, concepts, information and
     -----------------------------------
written material disclosed to Employee by SM&A, or acquired from any of the
Clients, and all financial, accounting, statistical, personnel, and business
data and plans of the Clients, are and shall remain the sole and exclusive
property and proprietary information of SM&A, or said Client, and are disclosed
in confidence by SM&A or permitted to be acquired from the Clients in reliance
on Employee's agreement to maintain them in confidence and not to use or
disclose them to any other person except in furtherance of SM&A's business.

9.   Return of Information.  At the time of the termination of the Employment,
     ---------------------
except as permitted by Section 7(b) above, Employee agrees to deliver promptly
                       ------------
to SM&A all notes, books, electronic data (regardless of storage media),
correspondence and other written or graphical records (including all copies
thereof) in Employee's possession or under Employee's control relating to any
business, work, the Clients or any other aspect of SM&A, whether or not
containing any Secrets, including but not limited to each original and all
copies of all or any part thereof.

10.  Cooperation.  Employee agrees that, both during the Employment and
     -----------
afterward, he will sign all papers, give evidence and testimony and, at SM&A's
expense, perform all acts which, in SM&A's opinion, are necessary, proper or
expedient to carry out and fulfill the purposes and intents of this Agreement.

11.  Remedies; Injunctive Relief.  In the event of a breach or threatened breach
     ---------------------------
by Employee of any of the provisions of this Agreement, Employee agrees that
SM&A, in addition to and not in limitation of any other rights, remedies, or
damages available to SM&A at law or in equity, shall be entitled to a
preliminary and a permanent injunction in order to prevent or restrain any such
breach by Employee or by Employee's partners, agents, representatives, servants,
employers, employees, and/or any and all persons directly or indirectly acting
for or with Employee.

12.  Termination of Employment.
     -------------------------

     12.1  The Employment may be terminated by SM&A at any time with "Cause" (as
                                                                      -----
defined below).  Except as otherwise agreed in writing or as otherwise provided
by this Agreement as due and payable (or as required by law), upon termination
of the Employment by SM&A with Cause, SM&A shall have no further obligation to
Employee under this Agreement by way of compensation or otherwise, but
Employee's duties under Sections 6 through 10, inclusive, shall continue after
                        ---------------------
said termination of Employment.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent
the grounds for any proposed termination with Cause are capable of being cured
or remedied by Employee, SM&A shall not terminate Employee with Cause unless the
representative of the Board of Directors of SM&A has first counseled Employee as
to how he could effect such cure or remedy and Employee is given at least thirty
(30) days to do so.  A determination of whether Employee has satisfactorily
effected such cure or remedy shall be promptly made by a majority of the
disinterested (i.e. not the Employee) directors of the Board of Directors at the
end of the period provided to Employee for such cure or remedy and such
determination shall be final.

                                       4

     12.2  The Employment may be terminated at any time (i) by SM&A without
Cause (as defined below) by giving Employee thirty (30) days' advance written
notice of such termination or (ii) by Employee for Good Reason (as defined
below) by giving SM&A thirty (30) days' advance written notice of such
termination. In the event that SM&A terminates the Employment without Cause, or
Employee terminates the Employment for Good Reason, SM&A shall (i) pay to
Employee the base salary of the Compensation, (ii) provide the same health and
life insurance benefits, and (iii) pay the lease payments with respect to the
automobile lease described in Exhibit A attached hereto, in each case until the
                              ---------
earlier to occur of (A) the last day of the term of this Agreement specified in
Section 1.2 above, (B) the expiration of twelve (12) calendar months after the
-----------
effective date of such termination of the Employment, (C) the date upon which
Employee becomes employed on a full-time basis (including but not limited to
self-employment, but only if Employee holds himself out to the public as being a
self-employed consultant or other businessman), or (D) the date upon which
Employee violates any of Sections 6 through 10, inclusive. In addition, SM&A
                         ---------------------
shall pay Employee the pro-rated Incentive Bonus described in Exhibit A attached
                                                              ---------
hereto to which Employee was entitled during the Employment (which proration
shall be based on a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar
days during the fiscal year during which Employee was employed prior to the
effective date of the termination of the Employment and the denominator of which
is 365).  If SM&A's medical and/or life insurance plans do not allow Employee's
continued participation in such plan or plans during the period described above,
then SM&A shall pay to Employee, in monthly installments, from the date on which
Employee's participation in such medical and/or life insurance, as applicable,
is prohibited for the remainder of the time period described in the second
sentence of this Section 12.2, the monthly premium or premiums which had been
                 ------------
payable by SM&A with respect to Employee for such discontinued medical and/or
life insurance, as applicable.

     12.3  Employee may terminate the Employment without Good Reason at any time
by giving SM&A thirty (30) days' advance written notice of such termination.
Upon Employee's termination of the Employment without Good Reason, SM&A shall
have no further obligation to Employee under this Agreement by way of
compensation or otherwise (except for the obligation to pay the Compensation to
which Employee may be entitled at the time of such termination), but Employee's
duties under Sections 6 through 10, inclusive, shall continue after said
             ---------------------
termination of the Employment.

     12.4  The Employment will terminate immediately upon Employee's death. In
such event, SM&A shall (i) pay to Employee's estate the base salary and family
health benefits components of the Compensation until the earlier to occur of (A)
the last day of the term of this Agreement specified in Section 1.2 above or (B)
                                                        -----------
the expiration of twelve (12) calendar months after the effective date of such
termination.  In addition, SM&A shall pay to Employee's estate the pro-rated
Incentive Bonus described in Exhibit A attached hereto to which Employee was
                             ---------
entitled during the Employment (which proration shall be based on a fraction,
the numerator of which is the number of calendar days during the fiscal year
during which Employee was employed prior to his death and the denominator of
which is 365).  Except for the payments expressly provided in this Section 12.4,
                                                                   ------------
SM&A shall have no further obligation to Employee's estate under this Agreement
by way of compensation or otherwise.

     12.5  SM&A may terminate the Employment at any time if Employee becomes
Disabled (as defined below) by giving Employee thirty (30) days' advance written
notice of such

                                       5
<PAGE>

termination. In the event that SM&A terminates the Employment because Employee
has become Disabled, SM&A shall (i) pay to Employee the base salary of the
Compensation and (ii) provide the same health and life insurance benefits, in
each case until the earlier to occur of (A) the last day of the term of this
Agreement specified in Section 1.2 above, (B) the expiration of twelve (12)
                       -----------
calendar months after the effective date of such termination of the Employment,
(C) the date upon which Employee becomes employed on a full-time basis
(including but not limited to self-employment, but only if Employee holds
himself out to the public as being a self-employed consultant or other
businessman), or (D) the date upon which Employee violates any of Sections 6
                                                                  ----------
through 10, inclusive.  In addition, SM&A shall pay Employee the pro-rated
----------
Incentive Bonus described in Exhibit A attached hereto to which Employee was
                             ---------
entitled during the Employment (which proration shall be based on a fraction,
the numerator of which is the number of calendar days during the fiscal year
during which Employee was employed prior to the effective date of the
termination of the Employment and the denominator of which is 365).  If SM&A's
medical and/or life insurance plans do not allow Employee's continued
participation in such plan or plans during the period describe above, then SM&A
shall pay to Employee, in monthly installments, from the date on which
Employee's participation in such medical and/or life insurance, as applicable,
is prohibited for the remainder of the time period described in the second
sentence of this Section 12.5, the monthly premium or premiums which had been
                 ------------
payable by SM&A with respect to Employee for such discontinued medical and/or
life insurance, as applicable.

     12.6  As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the

     Employment (including but not limited to inactions) which constitute either
     (i) gross insubordination, gross negligence, unethical or criminal behavior
     constituting a felony under federal or state law and which involves moral
     turpitude, or a breach of fiduciary duty of Employee as an officer and/or
     director of SM&A, or (ii) a violation of any of Sections 4 through 10,
                                                     ---------------------

     impairment or injury, by more than twenty-five (25%) for a period of six
     (6) consecutive months or for nine (9) months in any consecutive twelve
     (12) month period. In the event Employee disputes SM&A's determination that
     he is Disabled, Employee shall give written notice of such dispute to SM&A
     during the thirty (30) day notice period prior to the proposed effective
     date of such termination, and Employee and SM&A shall thereupon each
     select, within thirty (30) days of such notice from Employee, a physician
     to evaluate whether Employee is Disabled. Such physicians shall complete
     their evaluation and report to the Board of Directors within thirty (30)
     days. If such physicians do not agree as to whether Employee is Disabled,
     they shall promptly select a third physician to further evaluate Employee,
     whose conclusion on such matter shall be rendered within ten (10) days of
     his or her selection and shall be final and binding on Employee and SM&A.

          (c)  "Good Reason" shall mean any of the following:

<PAGE>

     constitute a diminution of status with SM&A, (B) a material change in
     Employee's titles or offices or diminution of reporting relationships (such

     Directors) adverse to Employee, or (C) any removal of Employee from or any
     failure to reelect Employee to any of his positions as a senior officer of
     SM&A, except, in any such case, with Employee's consent or in connection
     with the termination of his employment for disability, retirement (at age
     70), death or resignation (other than resignation for Good Reason),
     provided, however, that Good Reason shall not include the assignment to
     Employee of any duties or responsibilities of one or more management
     positions within his competence to the extent that any such position is not
     filled at any time and it is necessary to perform the duties and
     responsibilities of such position pending the hiring of a person to hold
     such position, provided that any such assignment does not exceed six (6)
     months, and provided that SM&A is actively seeking to fill such position
     during the period of such assignment;

          (ii)   a purported reduction by SM&A in the Compensation in effect on
     the date hereof or as the same may be increased from time to time during
     the term of this Agreement or any failure by SM&A to reimburse Employee or

     significant and material benefit plan or arrangement (including, without
     limitation, SM&A's incentive bonus plan, profit sharing plan, stock option
     plans, medical insurance plans, disability insurance plans, life insurance
     plans or vacation pay plans, with such generally applicable amendments
     thereto as may be approved from time to time in good faith by SM&A's Board
     of Directors) in which Employee is participating or other plans providing
     Employee with substantially similar benefits (collectively, the "Benefit
                                                                      -------
     Plans"), or any action by SM&A which would materially and adversely affect
     -----
     Employee's participation in or materially reduce Employee's benefits under
     any Benefit Plan;

          (iv)   a relocation of the office to which Employee is required to
     report to a location outside of a twenty-five (25) mile radius of the then
     existing SM&A corporate headquarters, or a requirement that Employee
     relocate his residence from Irvine, California;

          (v)    any failure by SM&A to obtain the assumption of this Agreement
     by any successor or assign of SM&A, if such successor or assigns asserts
     the position that it is not bound by the provisions hereof,

          (vi)   any failure by SM&A to comply with any material provision of
     this Agreement; or

          (vii)  a failure to provide support services, staff, office space and
     accouterments necessary to perform any duties assigned to Employee or a
     material reduction in the level of support services and staff, office space
     or

                                       7
<PAGE>

     accouterments made available to Employee, unless such reduction is
     generally effective for all other officers of equal rank or junior to
     Employee; provided, however, that no such action shall be considered to
     constitute Good Reason unless and until Employee has given SM&A written
     notice of, and thirty (30) days' opportunity to cure or remedy the specific
     action which Employee alleges would constitute Good Reason if not so cured
     or remedied and SM&A has failed to effect such cure or remedy.

     12.7   The rights and remedies provided in this Section 12 shall constitute
                                                     ----------
the exclusive rights and remedies available to Employee relating to or arising
from the termination of the Employment, including claims for breach of contract;
provided, however, that Employee shall be entitled to pursue any and all
available legal remedies based on any claim that such termination constituted a
violation of applicable federal or state law.

     12.8   No policies or procedures of SM&A or benefits provided by SM&A,
whether oral or written, express or implied, formal or informal, are intended,
nor shall they be construed to limit the right or ability of SM&A or Employee to
terminate the Employment as set forth above. Except as otherwise agreed in
writing or as otherwise provided by this Agreement, upon termination of the
Employment, neither SM&A nor Employee shall have any further obligation to each
other by way of compensation or otherwise.

     12.9   SM&A will require any successor or assign (whether direct or
indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or
substantially all of the business and/or assets of SM&A, by agreement in form
and substance reasonably satisfactory to Employee, expressly, absolutely and
unconditionally to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner
and to the same extent that SM&A would be required to perform this Agreement if
no such succession or assignment had taken place. In any such event, the term
"SM&A" as used in this Agreement shall mean any such successor or assign which
executes and delivers the agreement provided for in the immediately preceding

consolidation represent or are converted into securities representing more than
50% of the voting power of the surviving corporation in such merger or
consolidation or the parent of such corporation, (ii) any sale, lease, exchange
or other transfer (in one transaction or a series of related transactions) of
all, or substantially all, of the assets of SM&A, (iii) the approval by the

(v) during any period of two consecutive years, individuals who, at the
beginning of such period constitute the entire Board of Directors, together with
persons whose nomination was approved by a vote of at least two thirds of such
directors (or directors so approved) shall cease for any reason to constitute a
majority of the members of the Board of Directors, or (vi) there shall be any
change of control of a nature which would be required to be reported in response
to Item 6(e) of Schedule 14A of Regulation 14A promulgated under the Exchange
Act or any successor regulation of substantially similar import, regardless of
whether SM&A is subject to such reporting requirement at such time.

                    his best efforts to coordinate with the President and COO of
                    SM&A the dates upon which Employee shall use his aforesaid
                    vacation so as to minimize the negative impact upon SM&A
                    occasioned by Employee's absence.

3.   CELLULAR
     PHONE:         SM&A shall reimburse Employee for the periodic cost of a

                    of additional compensation or benefits to employees of SM&A
                    which SM&A at any time maintains for executive employees.

                    SM&A shall reimburse Employee monthly for all such approved
                    business expenses upon presentation of reasonable

                    The incentive bonus may be based on financially oriented

                    audit for said fiscal year by SM&A's independent auditors.

                    Employee may draw up to $70,000 through quarterly payments,

                    required to indemnify Employee against personal liability
                    for acts of SM&A, to the extent such indemnification is
                    permitted by law.
