                       WORKGROUP TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION
                  Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Nature of Business

   Workgroup Technology Corporation (the "Company") was incorporated on May 11,
   1992.  WTC SolutionCenter(TM), the Company's line of productivity enhancing
   products and services, provides both production-proven, enterprise product
   data management through its CMS product and real-time knowledge-based program
   management solutions for product development through WTC OpCenter.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

   Basis of Presentation

   The accompanying unaudited financial statements and notes do not include all
   of the disclosures made in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for
   fiscal 1998, which should be read in conjunction with these statements.
   However, in the opinion of Management, the statements include all adjustments
   necessary for a fair presentation of the quarterly results.  All adjustments
   made to these financial statements were considered to be of a normal and
   recurring nature.  The results for the three and nine month periods ended
   December 31, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
   expected for the full fiscal year.

   Risks and Uncertainties

   The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
   accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
   that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of
   contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
   the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
   Actual results could differ from those estimates and would impact future
   results of operations and cash flows.

3. Net Loss Per Share

   The Company's basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by
   the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding.  The
   Company's diluted net loss per share is based on the same computation but
   includes dilutive potential common shares.  Potential common shares include
   shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options or warrants, net of shares
   assumed to have been purchased with the proceeds.  Potential common shares
   were antidilutive for each of the three and nine month periods ended December
   31, 1998 and 1997 and therefore the basic and diluted net loss per share were
   the same.

   Options to purchase shares of the Company's common stock of 2,024,836 and
   1,731,807 were outstanding for the periods ended December 31, 1998 and 1997,
   respectively, at weighted average prices of $3.82 and $3.83, respectively,
   but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share
   because they were antidilutive.

                    Management's Discussion and Analysis of
                 Financial Condition and Results of Operations
                                        

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------

Revenue.  The Company's revenue consists of license fees for its CMS and WTC
OpCenter software products and fees for professional services and software
maintenance.  Revenue for the three and nine month periods ended December 31,
1998 increased 15.1% and 8.6%, respectively, to $2,183,000 and $6,093,000 from
$1,897,000 and $5,611,000 in the comparable periods of fiscal 1998.

Software license revenue decreased 3.1% to $816,000 in the third quarter of
fiscal 1999 from $842,000 in the same period of fiscal 1998.   During the third
quarter of fiscal 1999, the Company commercially released its new software
product, WTC OpCenter.  A decrease in revenue from the Company's CMS software
product was partially offset by initial revenue from WTC OpCenter.  For the nine
months ended December 31, 1998, software license revenue decreased 1.9% to
$2,304,000 from $2,348,000 in the comparable period of fiscal 1998.

Maintenance and services revenue for the three and nine month periods ended
December 31, 1998 increased 29.6% and 16.1%, respectively, to $1,367,000 and
$3,789,000 from $1,055,000 and $3,263,000 in the comparable periods of fiscal
1998.  This increase resulted both from higher maintenance revenue as a result
of an increase in the customer maintenance base as well as an increase in
revenue from consulting services.

Cost of Revenue and Gross Profit.  The Company's cost of software license
revenue consists primarily of royalties payable upon the license of products for
which another party is entitled to receive compensation, as well as costs
associated with media, packaging, documentation and delivery of the Company's
product.  Gross profit associated with software license revenue for the third
quarter of fiscal 1999 decreased to $710,000 or 87.0% of software license
revenue from $785,000 or 93.2% of software license revenue in the third quarter
of fiscal 1998.  For the nine months ended December 31, 1998, gross profit from
software license revenue decreased to $2,066,000 or 89.7% of software license
revenue from $2,186,000 or 93.1% for the same period of fiscal 1998.  These
changes resulted primarily from the mix of products sold during each of the
periods which required royalty payments to another party as well as higher
packaging costs associated with the initial release of WTC OpCenter.

Cost of maintenance and services revenue consists primarily of personnel costs
for the Company's customer support and professional services organizations. The
Company's gross profit on maintenance and services revenue increased to $559,000
or 40.9% of maintenance and services revenue in the third quarter of fiscal 1999
from $432,000 or 40.9% of maintenance and service revenue in the third quarter
of fiscal 1998.  For the nine months ended December 31, 1998, gross profit on
the maintenance and services revenue increased to $1,374,000 or 36.3% from
$1,159,000 or 35.5% of the associated revenue in the comparable period of fiscal
1998.  The gross profit percentages on maintenance and services have remained
consistent during the comparable periods.

Total gross profit as a percentage of total revenue decreased to 58.1% and 56.5%
for the three and nine months ended December 31, 1998 from 64.2% and 59.6% in
the same periods of fiscal 1998.  These decreases are the result of lower
margins on software as well as a higher proportion of revenue from maintenance
and services versus software licenses in the three and nine month periods of
fiscal 1999.

                    Management's Discussion and Analysis of
                 Financial Condition and Results of Operations
                                        

Selling and Marketing.  Selling and marketing expenses increased 5.4% and 12.6%
for the three and nine month periods ended December 31, 1998 to $1,601,000 and
$4,981,000 from $1,519,000 and $4,425,000, respectively, for the same periods of
fiscal 1998.  These increases resulted primarily from additional personnel costs
associated with an increase in the number of employees in the selling and
marketing organizations as well as additional marketing program costs associated
with the release of WTC OpCenter.  In the third quarter of fiscal 1999, selling
and marketing expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased to 73.3% from 80.1%
in the same period of fiscal 1998.  For the nine months ending December 31,
1998, selling and marketing expenses as a percentage of revenue increased to
81.7% from 78.9% in the same period of fiscal 1998.

Research and Development.  Research and development expenses increased 19.5% and
24.3% for the three and nine month periods ended December 31, 1998 to $1,683,000
and $5,089,000 from $1,408,000 and $4,095,000, respectively, for the same
periods of fiscal 1998.  The increases in fiscal 1999 resulted primarily from
the employment of additional staff and external contractors to develop and
enhance the Company's products.  As a result of these increases, research and
development expenses as a percentage of revenue increased to 77.1% and 83.5% in
the three and nine month periods of fiscal 1999 from 74.2% and 73.0% in the same
periods of fiscal 1998.

General and Administrative.  In the third quarter of fiscal 1999, general and
administrative expenses decreased 17.5% to $415,000 from $503,000 in the third
quarter of fiscal 1998.  For the nine months ending December 31, 1998, general
and administrative expenses decreased 10.3% to $1,294,000 from $1,442,000 in the
same period of fiscal 1998.  Fiscal 1998 included general and administrative
expenses associated with the termination and recruitment of several management
positions that did not recur in fiscal 1999.  As a result of increased revenue
and lower expenses, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of
revenue decreased to 19.0% and 21.2% for the three and nine month periods of
fiscal 1999 from 26.5% and 25.7% for each of the same periods of the previous
fiscal year.

Interest Income, (Net).  Interest income, net consists primarily of interest
earned on cash and cash equivalents.  As a result of a decrease in the cash and
cash equivalent balances, interest income for the three and nine month periods
ended December 31, 1998 decreased $196,000 or 38.7% and $167,000 or 13.4%,
respectively, from the same periods of fiscal 1998.

Provision for Income Taxes.  For the three and nine months ended December 31,
1998, the provision for income taxes decreased to zero from $20,000 and $70,000,
respectively, for the same periods of fiscal 1998.  The fiscal 1998 provision
for taxes was attributable to estimated state taxes as well as taxable income in
the Company's foreign subsidiaries, some of which have been closed.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
-------------------------------

Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 1998 decreased $6,836,000 to
$24,943,000 from $31,779,000 at March 31, 1998.  This decrease resulted
primarily from cash used in operations, as well as capital expenditures of
$405,000, during the nine month period ended December 31, 1998.  Working capital
decreased $6,567,000 to $21,875,000 at December 31, 1998 from $28,442,000 at
fiscal year end.

During the third quarter of fiscal 1999, the Company's Board of Directors
authorized the repurchase, subject to market conditions, of up to 500,000 shares
of the Company's common stock.  The Company's repurchases of shares of common
stock are recorded as Treasury Stock.  The Company used $132,000 of cash to
repurchase its common stock during the third quarter.

The Company believes its existing cash and cash equivalent balances will be
sufficient to meet its cash requirements for at least the next year.

To date, neither foreign currency exposure nor inflation has had a material
impact on the Company's financial results.

YEAR 2000 READINESS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT
----------------------------------------

Background.  The Year 2000 ("Y2K") issue is the result of computer programs
using a two-digit format, as opposed to four digits, to indicate the year.
Computer systems based on a two-digit format will be unable to interpret dates
beyond the year 1999, which could cause a system failure or other computer
errors, leading to disruptions in operations.  The Company believes that it has
four general areas of potential exposure with respect to the Y2K issue:  (1) its
own software products; (2) internal infrastructure; (3) other internally used
systems; and (4) suppliers.

Assessment.  The Y2K issue could affect the Company's products, computers,
software and other equipment used, operated, or maintained by the Company.
Accordingly, the Company is reviewing its internal computer programs and systems
to ensure that its products, programs and systems will be Y2K compliant.  While
the estimated cost of these efforts is not expected to be material to the
Company's financial position or any year's results of operations, there can be
no assurance to this effect.  At December 31, 1998, the Company had completed an
assessment of its mission critical systems.  The Company presently believes that
its products and computer systems will be Y2K compliant in a timely manner.

Software Sold to Customers.  The Company believes that it has substantially
identified potential Y2K issues with the software products it develops and
markets.  In the third quarter of fiscal 1999, the Company released a Y2K
compliant version of its CMS and WTC OpCenter products.  However, management
also believes that it is not possible to determine with complete certainty that
all Y2K issues affecting the Company's software products have been identified or
corrected due to the complexity of these products and the fact that these
products interact with other third party vendor products and operate on computer
systems which are not under the Company's control.

                    Management's Discussion and Analysis of
                 Financial Condition and Results of Operations
                                        

Internal Infrastructure.  The Company believes that it has identified the major
computers, software applications and related equipment used in connection with
its mission critical internal operations and has completed an initial assessment
of these systems in regards to Y2K compliance.  To minimize the possibility of a
material disruption to its business due to Y2K issues, the Company is evaluating
and, if necessary, modifying, upgrading or replacing major systems that may have
an adverse effect, and is scheduled to complete this process by the middle of
calendar year 1999.

Other Internally Used Systems.  In addition to computers and related systems,
the operation of office and facilities equipment, such as fax machines,
photocopiers, telephone equipment and other common devices may be affected by
Y2K issues.  The Company is currently assessing the potential effect of, and
costs of remediating, the Y2K issues of its office and facilities equipment.
The Company estimates the total cost to the Company of completing any required
modifications, upgrades or replacements of these systems will not have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business or results of operations.

Suppliers. The Company has initiated communications with third party suppliers
of the major computers, software and other equipment used, operated, or
maintained by the Company to identify and, to the extent possible, to resolve
issues involving Y2K. However, the Company has limited or no control over the
actions of these third party suppliers. Thus, while the Company expects that it
will be able to resolve any significant Y2K issues with these systems, there can
be no assurance that these suppliers will resolve any or all Y2K issues with
these systems before the occurrence of a material disruption to the business of
the Company or any of its customers. Any failure of these third parties to
resolve Y2K issues with their systems in a timely manner could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of
operations.

Most Likely Consequences of Year 2000 Issues. The Company expects to identify
and resolve Y2K issues that could materially adversely affect its business
operations. However, management believes that it is not possible to determine
with complete certainty that all Y2K issues affecting the Company have been
identified or corrected. The number of devices that could be affected and the
interactions among these devices are simply too numerous. In addition, one
cannot accurately predict how many Y2K issue related failures will occur or the
severity, duration, or financial consequences of these perhaps inevitable
failures. As a result, management expects that the Company and its customers
could suffer a significant number of operational inconveniences and
inefficiencies which may divert management's time and attention and financial
and human resources from its ordinary business activities. A lesser number of
serious system failures could occur that may require significant efforts by the
Company or its customers to prevent or alleviate material business disruptions.

Contingency Plans. As part of its Y2K compliance planning process, the Company
will develop contingency plans to be implemented if the need arises. Depending
on the systems affected, these plans could include accelerated replacement of
affected equipment or software, short to medium-term use of backup equipment and
software, increased work hours for Company personnel or use of contract
personnel to correct on an accelerated schedule any Y2K issues that arise or to
provide manual workarounds for information systems, and similar approaches. If
the Company is required to implement any of these contingency plans, it could
have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results
of operations.

Based on the activities described above, the Company does not believe that Y2K
issues will have a material adverse effect on the Company's business or results
of operations.

CERTAIN FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS
----------------------------------------------

From time to time information provided by the Company, statements made by its
employees or information included in its filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (including this Form 10-Q) may contain statements which are
not historical facts, so-called "forward-looking statements", and which involve
risks and uncertainties. The Company's actual future results may differ
significantly from those stated in or implied by any forward-looking statements.
Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to, the
factors discussed below. Each of these factors, and others, are discussed from
time to time in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, including the Company's Form 10-K filed in June 1998.

Because the Company's operating expenses are relatively fixed, any unanticipated
shortfall in revenue in a quarter may have an adverse impact on the Company's
results of operations for that quarter.  As a result of the foregoing and other
factors, the Company may experience material fluctuations in future operating
results on a quarterly or annual basis which could materially and adversely
affect its business, financial condition, operating results and stock price.

The Company's future results are subject to substantial risks and uncertainties.
Because the Company derives the majority of its revenue from software license
fees, the Company's quarterly and annual operating results are sensitive to the
size, timing and shipment of individual orders, customer order deferrals in
anticipation of new products or the lengthening of the sales cycle either
generally or with respect to individual customers. In addition, the Company's
continued growth is dependent on achieving broader market acceptance of its
products, including the recently introduced WTC OpCenter, the growth of the
product data management and knowledge-based program management markets and the
ability of the Company to introduce enhancements and additional integrations to
its products in a timely manner to meet the evolving needs of its customers. The
Company also relies on certain intellectual property protections to preserve its
intellectual property rights. Any invalidation of the Company's intellectual
property rights or lengthy and expensive defense of those rights could have a
material adverse effect on the Company. The segment of the software industry in
which the Company is engaged is extremely competitive. Certain current and
potential competitors of the Company are more established and benefit from
greater market recognition and have substantially greater financial, development
and marketing resources than the Company. The Company's ability to achieve Year
2000 compliance, and the level of incremental costs associated therewith, could
be adversely impacted by, among other things, the availability and cost of
programming and testing resources, vendors' ability to modify proprietary
software, and unanticipated problems identified in the ongoing compliance
review.
