PART I

Item 1.  Business

(A)  History and Organization

Micro-Media Solutions, Inc., (formerly Mountain States 
Resources Corporation) was organized under the laws of the 
state of Utah on April 15, 1969.  The operating subsidiary of 
MSI was organized in 1993 in Austin, Texas.  On June 23, 
1997, Mountain States Resources Corporation, a Utah 
corporation ("MSRC"), entered into an agreement and plan of 
reorganization with the shareholders of Micro-Media 
Solutions, Inc., a Texas Corporation whereby the Company 
acquired a non-operating company in exchange for common stock 
of the Company (the "Combination Agreement").  Pursuant to 
the Combination Agreement, MSRC issued 9,310,000 shares of 
its Common Stock for all of the outstanding shares of Micro-
Media Solutions, Inc., a Texas corporation.  As part of the 
reorganization, MSRC changed its name to Micro-Media 
Solutions, Inc. on September 29, 1997.  The transaction was 
accounted for as a recapitalization.







(B)  Business of Issuer

MSI is a technology corporation formed to provide computer 
hardware and peripherals, Internet Services, service and 
support, maintenance, installation services, Network 
Systems Integration, LAN/WAN distribution services, and 
related turnkey services to the public and private sectors.  
MSI maintains certification as a minority-owned business 
enterprise ("MBE") and status as a Historically 
Underutilized Business ("HUB").  As such, MSI has been 
qualified by a number of City, State and Federal agencies 
to provide these services.

MSI is ranked as the fifth highest computer reseller in 
Austin, Texas based on 1997 sales of brand name, factory-
manufactured computers.  In addition to reselling computer 
hardware, the Company focuses on infrastructure design and 
implementation services.  MSI's computer networking 
services include system integration, and local and wide 
area networks.  Since 1993, MSI has installed local and 
wide area networks throughout Texas utilizing an aggregate 
of over 6,000 workstations and 350 servers.  MSI delivers 
complete solutions to clients offering the latest technical 
development in the design, installation, and support of 
client/server systems.  MSI provides depot repair services 
for most brands of personal computer hardware and has 
capabilities for fiber optics through in-plant and out-
plant installation services.  MSI's personnel are certified 
in copper and fiber optic premises wiring systems for data, 
voice, and video applications.

(C)  Products and Services

Networking Systems.  MSI  recognized over the past two 
years that the network marketplace was changing drastically 
from smaller, centrally managed local area networks with 
limited end points to a much broader group that includes 
employee communications, client server work, multimedia, 
Internet access and videoconferencing applications.  To 
serve this market, the Company has expanded its 
sales/service staff by adding 14 sales and service 
employees during 1998.  During 1998, the Company sent its 
service technicians to over forty separate training classes 
to improve levels of certification in fiber optic 
communications and installation, personal computer repair, 
fiber optic termination, Category 5 wiring installation, 
Cisco Systems installation certification, Panduit PAN-NET 
cabling systems and Microsoft core technologies.  The 
Company provides network installation and implementation 
assistance with Asymmetrical Digital Subscriber Line 
("ADSL"), Asynchronous Transfer Mode ("ATM"), Fast Ethernet 
and Fiber Distributed Data Interface ("FDDI").  The Company 
was listed by the Austin Business Journal as number six of 
the largest 25 networking service companies in the Central 
Texas region.    


Internet Market.  During 1998, the Company expanded their 
service offerings in the Internet market with additional 
staff in their programming department to offer Web page 
design, Internet hosting, Internet applications and 
Internet access.  MSI sells and services their line of 
personal computer, the TeleVista, which is designed for use 
with the Internet and corporate Intranets.  Company 
Internet sales focus on the large public agencies, private 
business sector and telecommunications providers.  The 
Company has developed capabilities to provide services as 
an Internet Service Provider ("ISP") and considers that 
product to be a critical part of their sales offering.    

Field Installation Services.  MSI has developed an 
experienced staff of 35 technicians that currently provide 
state-wide field installation services to its key clients 
for the installation of lottery equipment, electronic 
benefit transfer equipment and network configurations. 
Through this strategy, MSI is positioned to offer a variety 
of technological services through its existing service 
staff that currently provides support to most areas of the 
State of Texas.  To provide a high level of timely service 
to all areas in its trade territory, MSI has developed 
numerous strategic relationships with qualified 
technological sub contractors in areas not directly served 
by MSI's staff.     

Network Computers.   MSI provides computers specifically 
designed for networks through the TeleVista, MSI's version 
of the network computer that is an affordable alternative 
to traditional personal computer acquisitions by various 
industries.  The Company has positioned itself as a 
provider of Network Computers ("NCs") and Internet 
services. Additionally, the Company holds the distinction 
of being the only HUB certified original equipment 
manufacturer ("OEM") of Network Computers identified in 
Central Texas.  Continued development of NCs and INET 
services will be a key factor in MSI's growth and business 
stability. The education markets, a significant niche for 
MSI, require a tremendous investment of school district 
resources for computer networking, servers, integration and 
computer work stations.   

Cabling Services.  MSI provides design engineering, bid 
development assistance, project management and cable 
installation for many public and private organizations.  
MSI's staff has several years of industry specific 
experience in most areas of network communications 
including microwave and radar systems.  MSI is positioned 
to offer increased services in the communications area 
through its extensive experience with various cable types 
including installation, splicing and testing of fiber 
optic.  MSI personnel are certified in copper as well as 
fiber optic wiring systems through the SECOR level for 
data, voice, and video applications.


Distribution Services.  The Company provides turn-key 
distribution of products, including warehousing, project 
management, hardware integration, kitting services, media 
duplication, customer packaging, planning, scheduling, and 
inventory control for various companies that provide 
technology based solutions. 

PC Hardware, Service, Support and Maintenance of Hardware 
and Software.  Through its marketing and service staff, the 
Company provides PC system sales, installation, support & 
upgrades, assembly, testing, configuration, maintenance & 
repair, peripheral support hardware, computer relocation's, 
and technical consulting.  Software support for personal 
computers includes design, analysis, custom applications 
development, data management and software implementation.

Distribution.  The Company relies on the direct sales 
method and referrals for the introduction of their products 
and services.  The current marketing and sales force of 13 
as of March 31, 1998 works closely with corporate officers 
to provide the conduit for Company sales in the Company's 
trade area.  Direct distribution of Company offered 
services or service based products is accomplished by 
Company's corporate staff or strategic relationships that 
have been developed with certain contract service 
providers.  Hardware sales distribution is handled by the 
corporate staff of MSI or through agreements with various 
vendors.

Competition. The computer and information access markets 
are characterized by rapidly changing technology and 
evolving industry standards. MSI experiences significant 
competition from other network computer manufacturers, 
suppliers of personal computers and workstations, and 
software developers.  On hardware sales, the Company has 
experienced increased competition in their market from 
numerous hardware vendors that has effectively reduced the 
available profit margins in that line of business.
    
MSI includes several important features that set their 
products and services apart from others that may be 
considered competitive:

   Ability to provide a broad range of network or 
     systems integration services with hardware sales.
   Extensive experience as an established performing 
     historically underutilized business (HUB).
   Established strategic partnerships and alliances.
   Certified Minority Business Enterprise ("MBE") by 
     City, State and Federal Agencies







MSI as well as other Internet service providers will be 
subject to continuing government regulations concerning the 
content and commerce on the Internet.  The Company does not 
anticipate any unusual problems complying with impending 
governmental regulations on the Internet.

(D) Principal Suppliers

The Company purchases its products for resale and use in 
its service projects from a select group of suppliers.  
While the Company relies on a relatively few suppliers, the 
products are available from numerous suppliers throughout 
the country.

(D)  Employees.

At March 31, 1998, MSI had a total of 60 employees of which 
53 are full-time.  None of MSI's employees are subject to a 
collective bargaining agreement.  MSI considers its 
relations with its employees to be good and anticipates 
that it will hire additional field personnel or rely on 
strategic alliances to implement its growth plans.

Item 2.  Properties

General

MSI's principal administrative, marketing, manufacturing 
and research and development operations are located at 501 
Waller Street in Austin, Texas.  MSI leases approximate 
39,500 square feet of executive office, manufacturing and 
distribution space under a long-term lease which expires on 
May 31, 2008.  If it were to require additional space, MSI 
believes that convenient office or warehouse space is 
readily available for lease. The annual gross rent for these 
facilities for the year ended March 31, 1998 was $109,980.   
The Company believes its existing facilities to be adequate 
for its present requirements.  

Capital Expenditures

We believe that investment in the Company's core 
telecommunications, service and hardware business will:
  Facilitate the introduction of new products and services;
  Enhance our responsiveness to ever increasing competitive 
challenges; and
  increase the operating efficiency and productivity of our 
service group.

Growth in capital expenditures was driven by demands in our 
core business coupled with internal expansions to prepare 
for the attraction of larger contracts.  Capital 
expenditures were $195,685, and $632,900 in 1998 and 
1997, respectfully.  Our capital spending is based on 
customer needs and our business plans.  Investments in 
technologies that will enable us to provide customers with 
new products and services represent a high priority.

On March 31, 1998 there were approximately 5,390 registered 
holders of the Registrant's common stock, including those 
persons having beneficial positions in street name 
holdings.

Holders of common stock are entitled to receive such 
dividends as may be declared by the Registrant's Board of 
Directors.  Since its inception, the Company has not paid 
any dividends and does not anticipate paying any cash 
dividends on its Common Stock in the foreseeable future.  
The Company plans to retain its future earnings, if any, to 
finance the growth and development of its operations.  With 
respect to the Common Stock, the declaration and payment of 
dividends in the future, of which there can be no 
assurance, will be determined by the Board of Directors in 
light of conditions then existing, including the 
Registrant's earnings, financial condition, capital 
requirements and other factors.

See Note 11 in the consolidated financial statements for 
the year ended March 31, 1998, for a discussion of preferred 
stock.

Item 6.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial 
Condition and Results of Operations

The purpose of this discussion is to focus on significant 
changes in the financial condition and results of operations 
of the Company during the past two years.  The discussion and 
analysis is intended to supplement and highlight information 
contained in the accompanying consolidated financial 
statements.  

This report may contain forward-looking statements which are 
subject to numerous assumptions, risk and uncertainties.  
Statements pertaining to future periods are subject to 
uncertainty because of the possibility of changes underlying 
factors and assumptions.  Actual results could differ 
materially from those contained in or implied by such 
forward-looking statements for a variety of factors 
including, but not limited to; significant changes in the 
economic conditions from what is currently anticipated; 
significant delay in or inability to execute strategic 
initiatives designed to grow revenues and/or control 
expenses; and significant changes in accounting, tax or 
regulatory practices or requirements.

The operating company of MSI was organized in 1993 in Austin, 
Texas to provide computer hardware, software programming, 
system support, maintenance, media duplication and kitting to 
the public and private sectors.  MSI maintains certification 
as a minority-owned business enterprise and status as a 
Historically Underutilized Business.  On June 23, 1997, the 
shareholders of Micro-Media Solutions, Inc., a Texas 
Corporation ("Operating Company"),  entered into an agreement 
and plan of reorganization with Mountain States Resources 
Corporation  (now known as Micro-Media Solutions, Inc.), 
(MSRC), whereby the Operating Company acquired MSRC in 
exchange for the Common Stock of the Operating Company (the 
"Combination Agreement").  Pursuant to the Combination 
Agreement, MSRC issued 9,310,000 shares of its Common Stock 
for all of the outstanding shares of Micro-Media Solutions, 
Inc., a Texas corporation (the "Combination"),(the 
"Company").  The Combination was accounted for as a 
recapitalization.

The Company's sales consist of hardware sales and delivery 
of technical services.  During the year ending March 31, 
1997, the sales mix consisted of a significant 
concentration in hardware sales with hardware deliveries to 
one public entity representing over 50% of the sales for 
that period.   Fiscal year 1998 reflects a more normal 
sales mix although the hardware sales production has 
decreased somewhat as a result of the declining hardware 
profit margins attributable to the increased competition 
for the pure hardware sales.

For the years ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company's 
total assets were $2,699,452 and $2,514,308 with 
liabilities of $2,591,686 and 2,617,892. Current assets of 
$1,898,620 and $1,310,495 represent 91.5% and 67.9% of 
current liabilities of $2,074,603 and $1,929,042.  
Improvements in cash and cash equivalents are a result of 
collection of accounts receivable and funds from increases 
in shareholders equity.  Reductions in accounts receivable 
from 1997 to 1998 are a direct reflection of the reduced 
level of sales from the prior year.  Accounts receivable 
balances at March 31, 1998 and 1997, reflect the charge off 
of $73,252 and $96,190 of accounts receivable that the
Company feels are uncollectable.  Company liabilities 
include a cash secured line of credit that was instituted 
in 1998 and certain other Company obligations.  

The Company has subsequent to the end of the year paid 
certain loans in full and substantially reduced the 
borrowings under the cash secured line of credit (see Notes 
4 and 14 in the consolidated financial statements for the 
year ended March 31, 1998).  Net shareholders equity 
(deficit) as of March 31, 1998 and 1997, was $107,766 and 
$(103,584).  During the fiscal year ending March 31, 1998, 
the Company completed phase I and phase II of a private 
placement of preferred stock (see Note 11 in the enclosed 
financial statements).  Subsequent to March 31, 1998, the 
Company partially funded phase III of the preferred stock 
with the completion of the funding anticipated in July, 
1998, (see Note 11 of the consolidated financial statements 
for the year ended March 31, 1998).  Receipt of these funds 
enabled the Company to reduce its outstanding debt and pay 
delinquent accounts payable.  Company expansion will be 
funded through additional funds from Phase III of the 
private placement, a debt offering and a possible public 
offering in 1999.

Revenues for 1998 of $2,740,822 reflect the Company's sales 
efforts in its markets.  Revenues for 1998 decreased 
$1,924,980 or (41.3%) from the $ 4,665,802 recorded in 
1997.  This reduction in 1998 occurred as a result of 
management's attention being focused on seeking a stable 
source for financing the company's expansion, conversion to 
a publicly traded company, development of longer term 
service contracts, expansion of the technical staff to 
service the expanded service contracts and identification 
of appropriate investors for the Company.  These goals have 
been accomplished and the Company anticipates an increase 
in revenue for 1999.  Sales efforts for the year ending 
March 31, 1999, from larger service contracts are expected 
to produce revenue levels that could return the Company to 
a more positive earnings trend.





Cost of goods sold for 1998 declined $245,857 or 7.4% from 
1997.  Cost of goods sold for 1998 of $3,060,633 or 111.7% 
of net revenue is extraordinarily high resulting in a 
negative gross margin of ($319,811) or (11.7%) of revenues 
for the year. The gross margin in 1997 was $1,359,312 or 
29.1% of 1997 revenues compared to a gross margin of 
(11.7%) for 1998. Gross margin percentages experienced in 
1997 more closely represent the margins management is 
working to attain.  Extraordinary items experienced in cost 
of goods sold for 1998 includes a cost overrun of 
approximately $500,000 on a large cabling project for a 
North Texas School District.  Reductions in revenues and 
reduced profit margins on hardware sales account for the 
remainder of the changes in cost of goods sold.  Problems 
experienced in the substantial cost overrun have been 
addressed with better controls, new middle management and 
improved accounting.  Management does not anticipate those 
problems in the future.  Gross margins are expected to 
improve in 1999.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses in 1998 of 
$2,822,152 represents 102.9% of Revenues.  The 1998 figure 
represents an increase over 1997 of $977,057 or 53.1%.  The 
majority of the expense increase, approximately $716,000, 
represents the increased staff that has been identified to 
enable the Company to work on larger service contracts and 
accomplish increased marketing of Company products.  Staff 
additions include service technicians, sales staff, 
accounting staff and middle management.  The majority of 
the remaining increase in expenses is attributable to 
training for expansion, marketing cost associated with new 
service contracts, and other expenses associated with the 
start up of new service contracts.

For 1998, the Company experienced an operating loss of 
$3,510,653 as compared to a loss of $482,385 in 1997.  A 
substantial portion of 1998's loss is directly attributable 
to the substantial expansion of additional Company 
infrastructure to address larger service opportunities and 
should position the Company to take advantage of new 
business opportunities in 1999 and future years.

Other expenses of $1,167,499 for 1998 reflect an increase
in occupancy and related expenses for company operations.    
The Company increased its leased warehouse space in late 
1997 with the resulting increase reflected in 1998. 
The Company incurred additional expenses for professional 
fees and consultants related to the reverse merger agreement 
and private placement.

Company results have been, and its future operating results 
may be, subject to some seasonality or fluctuations 
resulting from significant contracts with independent 
school districts.  These institutions normally concentrate 
their technology revisions or additions into the summer 
months or the time surrounding certain school vacations.

Going Concern Issue

The Company's large historical losses and accumulated 
deficit raise a doubt as to the Company's ability to 
continue as a going concern. Although the Company plans to 
address the going concern issues described in audited 
financial statements for the past two years through further 
reliance upon private placements, debt issues and public 
offerings, there can be no assurance that the Company will 
be able to secure additional capital through such public or 
private offerings. Subsequent to March 31, 1998, the 
Company received $2 million in phase III of a private 
placement agreement, (see Note 11). The proceeds from this 
private placement has been used to retire debt and decrease 
accounts payable.   The Company's current ratio has 
improved as a result of the retirement of short-term debt 
and accounts payable and increased cash position.  In 
addition, the Company anticipates the completion of Phase 
III in the summer of 1998 and plans a public offering in the 
year ended March 31, 1999.

The Company made significant investments in service related 
infrastructure in 1998 and does not anticipate additional 
expenses of the nature in 1999. In addition, the Company is
working to improve its internal controls through conversion 
to a new accounting system, continuing efforts toward 
efficiency in operations and development of marketing budgets.  
Management has identified and closed substantial contracts in 
1999 and believes it can produce the level of revenue necessary 
to return the Company to a positive earnings trend. The 
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might 
be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going 
concern.

Loss of HUB status

As long as the Company maintains its status as a 
"historically underutilized business" ("HUB"), it receives 
favorable treatment by certain governmental entities in 
bidding for long-term contracts.  As the Company's size and 
revenues grow, the Company may surpass limits on size and 
revenue set for HUB companies.  Although management 
estimates that the Company will maintain its HUB status for 
at least eighteen (18) more months, there can be no 
assurance that the Company will continue to qualify for HUB 
status during that period.  Further, there is no assurance 
that HUB-type programs will not be eliminated by the state 
or federal governments.









Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the twelve months ended March 31, 1998, working 
capital increased $442,564 from the prior year as a result 
of the completion of two private placements of the 
Company's preferred stock and reduction of the Company's 
bank lines of credit. At March 31, 1998, the Company had a 
working capital deficit of ($175,983) compared to a working 
capital deficit of ($618,547) at March 31, 1997.  During 
this period the Company's accounts payable decreased 
$575,701 or 65.7%.  As of March 31, 1998, MSI was more than 
thirty (30) days past due on a portion of its accounts 
payable in the amount of $170,000.  Subsequent to 
March 31, 1998, the majority of the accounts payable over 
thirty days past due were paid. The Company has a critical 
need for additional capital.  The inability to obtain 
significant additional financing would have a material 
adverse effect on the Company's business, financial 
condition and results of operations.  There can be no 
assurance that the Company will be able to obtain such 
additional capital.

Rapid Technological Change; Risk of Product Delays; Risk of 
Product Defects

The markets in which the Company competes are characterized 
by ongoing technological developments, frequent new product 
announcements and introductions, evolving industry 
standards and changing customer requirements. If the Company
is unable to enhance its existing products or introduce new 
products that address changing customer requirements, there 
could be a material adverse effect on the Company's business, 
financial conditions and operations.

Competition

The computer and information access markets in which the 
Company competes are characterized by rapidly changing 
technology and evolving industry standards.  The Company 
experiences significant competition in these markets from 
several competitors that have greater capital resources and 
larger  research and development staffs and facilities.  
There can be no assurance that the Company will develop 
sufficient research and development resources to compete 
favorably with these larger competitors.












Year 2000 Issues

As with other companies, the Company has initiated a 
program to study the impact on its computer systems in 
order to be Year 2000 compliant.  This study involves 
identifying any modifications or replacements of certain 
hardware and software maintained by the Company.  In 
addition, the Company is also taking actions to 
assure that its customers are taking steps to 
remedy their Year 2000 issues.  The Company has identified 
the computer systems which will require either 
modification, upgrade or replacement.  The Company 
anticipates that in-house personnel will be primarily 
responsible for completing these task and that the cost 
will not be significant.  As such, the Company believes 
that the planned modifications, upgrades and replacement of 
existing systems will be completed in a timely fashion to 
assure Year 2000 compliance, and any related cost will not 
have a material impact on the Company's results of 
operation, cash flows or financial condition in future 
periods.

Inflation

The Registrant does not believe that national or local 
inflation will have a material impact on Registrant's 
future product pricing since the Company has the ability to 
adjust prices to meet the current market.  Inflation may 
have a direct effect on Company's ability to deliver 
products pursuant to agreed contracts. This is attributable 
to a wide variety of factors, including, but not limited 
to, critical component availability, the timing of new 
product introductions by MSI and its competitors, 
fluctuating market pricing for computer and semiconductor 
memory products, industry competition and fluctuating 
component costs. Additionally, inventory obsolescence, 
seasonal cycles common in the computer industry, seasonal 
government purchasing cycles, the effect of product reviews 
and industry awards, manufacturing and production 
constraints, changes in product mix and the timing of 
orders from and shipments to OEM customers could affect 
operating performance.  Consequently, the operating results 
for any particular period are not necessarily indicative of 
the results that may occur in any future period.













This report contains, and from time to time the Company or 
certain of its representatives may make, "forward-looking 
statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the 
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the 
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  These 
statements are generally identified by the use of words 
such as "anticipate," "expect," "estimate'" "believe," 
"intend," and with similar meanings. Although the Company 
believes that the current views and expectations reflected 
in those forward-looking statements are reasonable, those 
views and expectations, and the related statements are 
inherently subject to risks, and other factors, many of 
which are not under the Company's control may not be 
predictable.  Those risks, uncertainties, and other factors 
could cause the actual results to differ materially from 
those in the forward-looking statements.  Those risks, 
uncertainties, and other factors include, but are not 
limited to, many of the matters described in this report: 
the Company's accumulated deficit and historical operating 
losses; the Company's critical need for additional capital; 
the loss of the Company's status as a "historically 
underutilized business"; rapid changes in technology; and 
competition.  The Company expressly disclaims any 
obligations to release publicly any updates or revisions to 
these forward-looking statements to reflect any changes in 
its views or expectations.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the Board of Directors of Micro-Media Solutions, Inc.,
 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet 
of Micro-Media Solutions, Inc. and Subsidiary (the "Company") 
as of March 31, 1998 and the related consolidated statements 
of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the 
year ended.  These consolidated financial statements are the 
responsibility of the Company's management.  Our 
responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated 
financial statements based on our audit. 

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted 
auditing standards.  Those standards require that we plan and 
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about 
whether the financial statements are free of material 
misstatement.  An audit includes examining on a test basis, 
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the 
financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the 
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by 
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial 
statement presentation.  We believe that our audit provides a 
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion the consolidated financial statements referred 
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the 
financial position of Micro-Media Solutions, Inc. and 
Subsidiary as of March 31, 1998, and the results of their 
operations and cash flows for the year then ended in 
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared 
assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. 
As discussed in Note 8 to the consolidated financial 
statements, current liabilities exceed current assets by 
$175,983 and has suffered losses from operations for the 
years ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 which raise substantial 
doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The 
financial statements do not include any adjustments relating 
to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, 
or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be 
necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the Board of Directors of Mountain States Resources 
Corporation: 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of 
operations of Mountain States Resources Corporation and 
subsidiary (the "Company") for the year ended March 31, 
1997.  This consolidated financial statement is the 
responsibility of the Company's management.  Our 
responsibility is to express an opinion on the consolidated 
financial statement based on our audit. 

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally 
accepted auditing standards.  Those standards require that 
we plan and perform the audit to obtain a reasonable 
assurance about whether the financial statements are free 
of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining on a 
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures 
in the financial statements.  An audit also includes 
assessing the accounting principles used and significant 
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the 
overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that 
our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion the consolidated statement of operations 
referred to above presents fairly, in all material 
respects, the consolidated results of their operation for 
the year ended March 31, 1997, in conformity with generally 
accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying consolidated financial statement have been 
prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going 
concern.  As discussed in Note 10 to the consolidated 
financial statement, the Company has suffered losses from 
operations and has a working capital deficiency, which 
raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a 
going concern.  Management's plans regarding these matters 
are presented in Note 10 of this financial statement.

As more fully described in Note 11 and 12, subsequent to 
the issuance of the Company's March 31, 1997 financial 
statements and our report thereon dated June 22, 1997, we 
became aware that those financial statements did not 
reflect certain adjustments as described in Notes 11 and 
12.  In our original report we expressed an unqualified 
opinion on the March 31, 1997 financial statement as 
described in paragraph four above, and our opinion on the 
revised statements, as expressed herein, remains 
unqualified with respect to paragraph four above.

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Business and Organization
Micro-Media Solutions, Inc. (formerly Mountain States 
Resources Corporation, ("MSRC")), was organized under the 
laws of the State of Utah on April 15, 1969. MSRC began 
operations in April 15, 1969, as a mining, mineral extraction 
and oil and gas exploration company.  MSRC discontinued its 
operations in 1993 and became a development stage company as 
described in the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 
No.7, "Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage 
Enterprises". On June 23, 1997, MSRC entered into a reverse 
merger agreement and plan of reorganization with the 
shareholders of Micro-Media Solutions, Inc. (a Texas 
Corporation),("MSI-Texas"), in which MSRC acquired 100% of 
the common stock of MSI-Texas.  As part of the 
reorganization, MSRC changed its name to Micro-Media 
Solutions, Inc., (a Utah Corporation), ("MSI") (the 
"Company").  The transaction was accounted for as a 
recapitalization.

MSI-Texas is an Austin, Texas, based technology corporation 
formed to provide Computer hardware, software programming, 
system support, maintenance, media duplication, and kitting 
to the public and private sectors.  In addition, MSI-Texas is 
certified by the State of Texas as a Historically 
Underutilized Business (HUB). 

MSI-Texas is a business solutions technology integrator with 
infrastructure design and implementation services.  In 
addition, MSI-Texas' computer networking services includes 
system integration and local and wide-area networks.

Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements the years ended March 
31, 1998 and 1997, include the accounts and transactions of 
MSI and MSI-Texas.  All significant inter-company accounts 
and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying 
consolidated financial statements.  MSI, however, did not 
have any material asset or liability accounts or account 
balances. With the exception of MSI's equity accounts, 
the significant account balances belong to MSI-Texas.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents consist primarily of funds invested in 
short-term interest-bearing accounts.  The Company considers 
all highly liquid investments purchased with initial 
maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable
The Company follows the allowance method of expensing 
accounts receivable when considered uncollectable.  As of 
March 31, 1998, management believes all accounts are 
collectible; and therefore, no allowance has been recorded.

Inventory
Inventory is valued at lower of cost, using the FIFO 
method(first-in/first-out), or market. Inventory consists 
principally of hardware and software needed for maintaining 
and building network technology for customers.

Property, Plant, and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. For financial 
statement purposes, depreciation is computed using the 
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the 
related assets.  Amortization of leasehold improvements is 
computed using the straight-line method over the shorter of 
the term of the related lease or the useful life of the 
leasehold improvements.  Accelerated depreciation methods are 
used for tax purposes. Depreciation and amortization are 
calculated over the following useful lives stated in years:
                                   Useful Lives
      Vehicles                           5
      Furniture and fixtures             5
      Equipment                          5
      Leasehold improvements            31.5

New Accounting Pronouncements
The Company accounts for stock options and warrants issued to 
employees in accordance with APB 25, "Accounting for Stock 
Issued to Employees".  The Company follows FASB Statement 
123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS No. 
123")  for financial statement disclosure purposes and 
issuance of options and warrants to non-employees for 
services rendered.

In accordance with FAS 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of 
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed 
Of", management reviews long-lived assets and intangible 
assets for impairment whenever events or changes in 
circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may 
not be fully recoverable.  As part of this assessment, 
management prepares an analysis of the undiscounted cash 
flows for each product that has significant long-lived or 
intangible asset values associated with it.  This analysis 
for the asset values as of March 31, 1998, indicated there 
was no impairment to the carrying value of these assets.

SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income", effective for 
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997, establishes 
standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income 
and its components in a full set of general purpose financial 
statements.  This statement requires that all items that are 
required to be recognized under accounting standards as 
components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial 
statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other 
financial statements.  The Company has addressed the 
requirements of SFAS No. 130 and no material impact on the 
financial statements is expected.

SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise 
and Related Information", effective for fiscal years 
beginning after December 15, 1997, establishes standards for 
reporting information about operating segments in annual 
financial statements and interim financial reports issued to 
shareholders.  Generally, certain financial information is 
required to be reported on the basis that is used internally 
for evaluating performance or an allocation of resources to 
operating segments.  The Company has not yet determined to 
what extent the standard will impact its financial 
statements.

Revenue Recognition
For financial reporting purposes, revenues are recognized in 
the accounting period that corresponds with the performance 
of the service to the customer.  The related costs and 
expenses are recognized when incurred.  Revenues are derived 
from local and state government contracts and contracts with 
local businesses.

Federal Income Tax
The Company uses the liability method of accounting for 
income taxes as prescribed by the Financial Accounting 
Standard Board Statement No. 109.  Deferred tax liabilities 
and assets are determined based on differences between the 
financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities 
using enacted tax rates expected to be in effect for the year 
in which the differences are expected to reverse.  The net 
change in deferred tax assets and liabilities is reflected in 
the statement of operations. 

Use of Estimates and Certain Concentrations
Management of the Company has made a number of estimates and 
assumptions relating to the valuation and reporting of assets 
and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and 
liabilities to prepare these consolidated financial 
statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting 
principles.  Although actual results could differ from those 
estimates, Management believes its estimates are reasonable.  
Certain components, subassemblies and software included in 
MICRO-MEDIA SOLUTIONS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 1998 AND 1997
(Continued)

the Company's computer systems are obtained from sole 
suppliers or a limited number of suppliers.  The Company 
relies, to a certain extent, upon the ability of its 
suppliers' to enhance existing products in a timely and cost-
effective manner, to develop new products to meet changing 
customer needs and to respond to emerging standards and other 
technological developments in the computer industry.  The 
Company's reliance on a limited number of suppliers involves 
several risks, including the possibility of shortages and/or 
increases in costs of components and subassemblies, and the 
risk of reduced control over delivery schedules.

Financial Instruments
Cash equivalents include highly liquid short-term investments 
with original maturities of three months or less, readily 
convertible to known amounts of cash.  The amounts reported 
as cash equivalents, receivables, other assets, accounts 
payable and accrued expenses and debt are considered by the 
Company to be reasonable approximations of their fair values, 
based on market information available to management as of 
March 31, 1998.  The use of different market assumptions and 
estimation methodologies could have a material effect on the 
estimated fair value amounts.  The reported fair values do 
not take into consideration potential taxes or other expenses 
that would be incurred in an actual settlement.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to 
concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash and 
cash equivalents and trade accounts receivable.  A 
concentration of credit risk may exist with respect to trade 
receivables, as many of the Company's customers are in the 
computer and telecommunications industries. The Company has a 
large number of customers on which it performs ongoing credit 
evaluations and generally does not require collateral from 
its customers. Historically, the Company has not experienced 
significant losses related to receivables from individual 
customers or groups of customers in any particular industry 
or geographic area.

NOTE 2. OTHER RECEIVABLES

Other receivables include employee advances for travel and 
lodging for out of town projects in the amount of $21,961.  
Also included in other receivables is $65,000 of cost paid by 
the Company to third parties in satisfaction of obligations of 
Argus Management, Inc., (see Note 14).

NOTE 3. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

A summary of the Company's investment in property, plant and

One providing for borrowings of up to $725,000 based on the 
amount of the Company's eligible receivables.  As of March 
31, 1998, the Company owed $208,966.  This amount was paid in 
full in April 1998 and was not renewed. Under the agreement, 
the Company was subject to covenants including certain 
financial ratios.

NOTE 8. GOING CONCERN

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have 
been prepared in conformity with generally accepted 
accounting principles which contemplate continuation of the 
Company as a going concern.  However, the Company has 
incurred a net loss in the current year of $3,510,653. As 
of that date, the Company's current liabilities exceeded 
its current assets by $175,983.  At March 31, 1998, the 
Company owes accounts payable with dates due in excess of 
thirty (30) days in the approximate amount of $170,000.  
These factors create a substantial doubt about the 
Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  The 
ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is 
dependent on obtaining additional financing to fund the 
expenses related to operations and capital improvements.  

Subsequent to March 31, 1998, the Company completed
Phase III of a private placement agreement, (see Note 11). 
The proceeds from this private placement have been used to 
retire debt and decrease accounts payable.  In addition, 
the Company anticipates the completion of Phase III in the 
summer of 1998 and plans a public offering in the year 
ended March 31, 1999.

In addition, the Company is working to improve its internal 
controls through conversion to a new accounting system, 
continuing efforts toward efficiency in operations and 
development of marketing budgets.  Management has 
identified and closed substantial contracts in 1999 and 
believes it can produce the level of revenue necessary to 
return the Company to a positive earnings trend. The 
financial statements do not include any adjustments that 
might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as 
a going concern.

NOTE 9. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company had notes receivable from certain related parties 
at March 31, 1997, in the amount of $419,774.  These related 
parties are owned and controlled by majority stockholders of 
the Company.   During the year ended March 31, 1998, the 
Company loaned an additional $142,265 to these related 
entities and received payments in the amount of $562,039.  At 
March 31, 1998, the Company did not have any notes 
receivables or payables to related parties.

The total rental obligation under the above contract for the 
year ended March 31, 1998, was $109,980.

NOTE 11:  STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

In October 1997, the Company completed a Private Placement 
Agreement, (the "Agreement") with a group of accredited 
investors.  The Agreement provides for three "Phases" of 
financing. 

Phase I of the Agreement was funded in November 1997. The 
Company received $2,120,000 in exchange for 400,000 shares of 
series B preferred stock (5% cumulative, convertible, non-
voting, stated value $5.30),(the "Series B Stock").  Each 
share of preferred stock is immediately convertible into 10 
shares of the Company's common stock and six warrants, (the 
"Warrants") for the purchase of six shares of common stock at 
$1.50 per share.  The Company paid $302,000 and issued 20,000 
shares of series B preferred stock for underwriting fees in 
Phase I. The agreement states that conversion of the 
preferred stock will not occur to the extent that the HUB 
status of the Company is compromised. An additional 4,348,738 
shares could be converted before the HUB status would be 
lost.









MICRO-MEDIA SOLUTIONS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 1998 AND 1997
(Continued)

The series B preferred stock can be converted to common 
stock. Therefore, a discount in the amount of $6,151,978 has 
been realized. The discount is the difference in the 
intrinsic value of the common stock and warrants less the net 
proceeds from the series B preferred stock.  The discount is 
accreted from the date of issuance of the preferred stock to 
the date the stock can be converted.  Due to the limitation 
on the number of shares of stock that can be issued to retain 
the HUB status, $3,412,502 has been recorded as dividends and 
as an increase in additional paid-in capital in the 
accompanying financial statements.  The unrecognized portion 
of the discount in the amount of $2,796,524 will be recorded 
if and when the preferred stock is converted or the HUB status 
changes.

Phase II of the Agreement was funded in February 1998. The 
Company received $1,000,004 in exchange for 94,340 shares of 
series C preferred stock (6% cumulative, convertible, non-
voting, stated value $10.60), (the "Series C Stock).  Each 
share of preferred stock is convertible into 10 shares of the 
Company's common stock.  The Company paid $130,000 and issued 
4,717 shares of series C preferred stock for underwriting 
fees.  The agreement states that conversion of the preferred 
stock will not occur to the extent that the HUB status of the 
Company is compromised.   

The series C preferred stock can be converted to common 
stock. Therefore, a discount in the amount of $615,851 has 
been realized.  The discount is the difference in the 
intrinsic value of the common stock less the net proceeds 
from the series C preferred stock. Due to the limitation on 
the number of shares of stock that can be issued to retain 
the HUB status, the unrecognized discount in the amount of 
$615,851 will be recorded if and when the preferred stock is 
converted or the HUB status changes.

Phase III of the Agreement was partially funded in April and 
May 1998 with the completion of the funding planned in July 
1998.  The Company has received $2,000,000 in the partial 
funding of Phase III.  

Senior convertible debt in the amount of $371,000 was issued 
for cash in November 1997.  This debt was converted to 70,000 
shares of series B preferred stock (5% cumulative, 
convertible, non-voting, stated value $5.30), in February 
1998.  Accrued interest in the amount of $5,143 was paid with 
the issuance of 10,286 shares of common stock. The discount 
on this issue of series B preferred stock is included in the 
total series B discount detailed above.

        Dividend yield                      0%
        Expected volatility             16.46%
        Risk-free interest rate          8.54%
        Expected lives                  5 Years

The weighted fair value of options granted for compensation 
during the year ended March 31, 1998, was $1.08.

Under the accounting provisions of SFAS No 123, the Company's 
net loss applicable to common stockholders and loss pro forma

NOTE 14:  CONTINGENCY

On December 18, 1997, Argus Management, Inc. filed 
Plaintiff's Original Petition in the 216th District Court of 
Kerr County, Texas.  Argus claims the Company and Mr. Jose G. 
Chavez, as joint obligors, defaulted on their obligation to 
Argus pursuant to two promissory notes for $100,000 each, 
both dated June 2, 1997.  Argus is seeking a judgment for 
$200,000, together with interest on the notes at the rate of 
20% per annum from June 2, 1997, through the date the notes 
are satisfied.  As of March 31, 1998, $65,000 had been 
disbursed to third parties in satisfaction of obligations of 
Argus Management, Inc. The $65,000 has been recorded in other 
receivables in the accompanying financial statements.

On February 6, 1998, the Company filed Plaintiff's Original 
Petition in the above-referenced case.  The Company asserts 
breach of contract, fraud, defamation, usury, and civil 
conspiracy claims against Argus Management, Inc.  The Company 
strongly disagrees with Argus' contentions and denies 
liability to Argus under the notes and plans to oppose 
vigorously Argus' claims.

ownership of such security within sixty days through means, 
including, but not limited to, the exercise of any option, 
warrant or conversion of a security.   Any securities not 
outstanding which are subject to such options, warrants or 
conversion privileges shall be deemed to be outstanding 
securities of the class owned by such person, but shall not 
be deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing 
the percentage of the class by any other person. There are 
no contractual arrangements or pledges of the Registrant's 
securities, known to the Registrant, which may at a 
subsequent date result in a change of control of the 
Registrant.

To ensure that you, as a customer, receive the best 
possible service, please note that you are obligated to 
do the following:

ordered by clearing an appropriate space with access to 
electrical power. If the receiver of the equipment at 
your campus denies setup service at the time of delivery 
the vendor is not required to return to that site to 
perform the setup unless special arrangements are made.


  Retain paperwork on your equipment purchase. 
Ideally you should create a warranty file with copies of 
paperwork (AB16s, invoices, etc.) on your purchase. Proof 
of purchase is always required before any warranty
repair can be performed. This is the only way we can 
ensure that any repairs performed to equipment during
the warranty period is not charged to you.


If you need assistance, or if any of the above 
services and/or items are not provided with your 
purchase, please contact the Technology Support's 
Microcomputer Technology Services Division (MTSD) at 
359-8996. Please post a copy of this letter and retain 
the

Overview

Southwestern Bell Integrated Technologies (SWB IT) is 
issuing this Request For Quote
 (RFQ) to secure subcontractors on state and/or local basis 
to install and maintain for a 3
year period: CSU/DSUs, routers  hubs NTl/TAs, printers, 
Category 5 wiring and personal computers in rural and metro 
areas across the state of Texas. There are approximately 
1000 locations across the state that will be installing the 
equipment and services described below. The timeline for 
this project is January 1998 through March 1999. There are 
two designs that will be described below; each will be used 
to provide Internet access to schools and public libraries 
across the state. Responses are due on 9/1/97at 5:00 P.M. 

Scope of Work


Each subcontractor will provide a turnkey cost to SWB for 
the installation designs discussed and illustrated below 
for 
both installation and a three-year on site maintenance 
contract. It uril1 be the contractors' responsibility to 
coordinate addressing of the network equipment with the end 
user customer. Contractor will also be responsible for 
extended wiring (if necessary) from the demarcation point 
to 
the equipment location. 

 Design #1
 
 This design includes a two port ISDN terminal adapter (TA) 
that will be shared by two PCs. Using a port on the TA, 
these P'Cs will use Windows NT 4.0 dial-up networking 
To connect via a B-channel to an ISP. The NT workstations 
will also use a 10Base2 Ethernet LAN to share a printer. 
The 
printer will be attached to the parallel port of one
 workstations and shared via Microsoft Networking to the 
other workstation. Each workstation will be configured with 
Windows NT Workstation 4.0, Microsoft Internet Explorer 
(latest version at time of install), and Norton Anti-virus 
for Windows NT (with auto-protect enabled). Further 
configuration of the PCs will be according to the forms 
in Attachment D.  The successful subcontractor(s) will 
provide installation of all hardware and software from the 
SWB point of demarcation up to and including the PC for 
Internet access. SWB will provide all equipment (i.e., 
NT1/TA, PCs, Printer, and Network cables)SWB will ship all 
equipment to the work site or to the subcontractor prior to 
the installation date. The subcontractor will provide 
installation, configuration, testing, documentation, and 
any 
incidental wiring (plenum rated, if necessary). A sketch of 
this design is included as Attachment A. All incidental 
hardware will be provided by the contractor (i.e., d-rings. 
tie wraps, wire mold, etc.) It will be the contractors'
 responsibility to pre-survey and coordinate the 
installations of all sites.

 Design # 2

 Design # 2 is more complicated than design #1. In short it 
is a hub site and up to 2 remotes or a hub site plus up to 
7 
remotes. The HUB Site will use a router to connect to an 
ISP 
at TI speed. The only difference between the two hub sites 
is the upgrade of the router from a Cisco 2524 to a 4500. 
The remotes will al1 be the same configuration and 
hardware. 
The goal of this design is to complete a network-to-
network" 
dedicated connection between the local LANs and the 
Internet. this will allow all workstations and servers 
attached to the local LANs access to the Internet. The hub 
site will include a Windows NT Server (acting as a domain 
controller, file server and WINS server) and four Windows 
N1 
Workstations (with Microsoft Internet Explorer -latest 
version- and Norton Anti-virus -with auto-protect enabled). 
The Server and Workstations will be configured to use 
Microsoft Networking over IP. A printer will be attached to 
the parallel port of a workstation. The printer wil1 be 
shared for use by all other workstations. The remote sites 
(up to two or seven depending on router used) will have 
two Windows NT workstation5 with similar configurations as 
the one at the host, including a local printer to be shared 
between the two. Further configuration of the PCs and 
workstations will be according to the forms in Attachment 
E. 
The successful subcontractor(s) will provide installation 
of 
all hardware and software from the SWB point of demarcation 
up to and including the PC for internet access. SWB will 
provide all equipment (i.e., CSU/DSU, PCs, Printers, Racks, 
Routers! and Network cables) and will ship it to the work 
site or to the subcontractor prior to the installation 
date. 
The subcontractor will provide installation, configuration, 
testing and documentation of al1 equipment plus Category 5 
wiring from the hub to the information outlet. All wiring 
will be certified 100BaseT, category 5, unshielded twisted 
pair, plenum rated cabling 1Eis includes patch panels, 
wiring, information outlets, and incidental hardware. A 
sketch of this design is included in Attachment B for the 
2500 router and Attachment C for the 4500 router. It will 
bc 
the contractors' responsibility to pre-survey and 
coordinate 
the installations of all sites. All incidental hardware 
will 
be provided by the contractor (i.e., d-rings, tie wraps, 
wire mold, etc.). 

Maintenance

The successful subcontractor(s) will be required to provide 
a 3 year, next day, on site maintenance package, available 
8 
hours per day for 5 days per week. This package must 
include 
a minimum two-hour phone response during hours covered. The 
package must also cover all hardware and software. SWB will 
maintain the communication lines, however, it may bc 
necessary at times for the contractor(s) to assist in 
determining the problem is related to hardware/software, 
the 
telecommunications network, or both. Generally, any trouble 
will be referred directly to the subcontractor from the end 
user customer. However, SWB may establish a single point 
for 
all trouble reporting and coordination. If we elect this 
option, all trouble dispatches will originate from the 
Technical Assistance Center (TAC). It will be the 
subcontractor(s)' responsibility to dispatch their own 
personnel to close the trouble report and respond to 
the TAC SWB will purchase the PCs, Printers, routers, HUBs 
and communications equipment with 3year replacement parts 
warranty that viill be passed on to the subcontractor. 
Paper, print cartridges, and consumables are not included 
in 
the three-year maintenance. 

Conclusion



It is understood that it is almost impossible for one 
subcontractor to have a presence across the state. It is 
SWB's intent to establish a network of subcontractors to 
cover the entire state; therefore, it is extremely 
important 
that each potential bidder clearly identify their 
geographic 
area of coverage.

Gary:

Actually, I work for SBC here in California, but they only 
let me use Pacific Bell letterhead.  Thank you for the 
update and I am glad we could talk about how things are 
going so far.  We urgently need some more ISP's to get into 
the action soon, so the sooner MSI is involved the better.

I have enclosed a copy of the agreement as promised and I

HISTORICALLY UNDERUTILIZED BUSINESS

Good Faith Effort compliance: 

Per Texas Civil Statutes Art. 60 lb   3 10 and S.36, State 
agencies are required to make a good faith effort to assist 
HUBs in receiving at least 30% of the total value of ail 
contract awards issued by the State. " Historically 
Underutilized Business" is defined in Texas Civil Statutes 
Art. 601b   1.02(3). "Total value of all contract awards" 
includes the value of subcontracts. Therefore, any 
business. (Prime Contractor) that contracts with the State 
is expected to make a good faith effort to assist HUBs in 
receiving at 
least 30% of the total value of subcontracts that the Prime 
Contractor awards on State contracts. A subcontractor is an 
entity that enters into a contract with a Prime Contractor 
to provide a portion of the goods or services for which the 
Prime Contractor is responsible under the terms of its 
contract with the State. To make such a good faith effort, 
the Prime Contractor should comply with the Governor's 
Executive Order criteria set forth below 

1. To the extent consistent with prudent industry practice, 
divide the contract work into the smallest feasible 
portions. 

2. Notify HURs of the work that the Prime Contractor 
intends to subcontract. The notice shall include a copy of 
the specifications, adequate information about the plans, 
scope of work, and requirements of the work: to be 
subcontracted, in order to allow all interested parties the 
opportunity to participate effectively. The Prime 
Contractor 
should provide written notice with sufficient time to allow 
all interested parties the opportunity to participate 
effectively. The Prime Contractor should send notice to at 
least 5 businesses in the current General Services 
Commission (GSC) HUB directory that perform the type of 
work required. If the GSC HUB directory does not have at 
least 
S businesses, then the Prime Contractor should send the 
required notice to HUBs on other government agency listings 
or other organizations' listings that provide assistance 
in identifying minority and women-owned enterprises. If a 
Prime Contractor uses sources other than the GSC HUB 
directory, syubcontractors selected will have to be 
certified by GSC or provide proof of certification from the 
Federal Government SBA 8a Program defined in Federal 
Regulation IS USC 637(a) and 636(j). 

3. In certain instances the Prime Contractor will be 
requested to explain why a HIJB was not hired for specific 
work This shall include: a) instances where the Prime 
Contractor selects a subcontractor through means other than 
accepting quotes; and b.) instances where, after accepting 
quotes, the low responsive vendor was a HUB and was 
not the awarded subcontractor. 



4. Maintain records of all the foregoing activity and the 
report quarterly to the Texas Depatrnent of Health (TDH) in 
the format required by TDH.

S. Contracting Parties that lease space to the State should 
follow the foregoing steps with regard to all goods and 
services provided for the leased space after commencement 
date of the lease. 





Historically Underutilized Business (HUB)
TDH Guidelines for Achieving (HUB-GUIDE)
GOOD FAITH EFFORT


In making a determination that a good faith effort has been 
made (for contracts over $ 100,000), the check list below 
shall be completed, with documentation attached explaining 
in what ways the Prime Contractor has made a Good Faith 
Effort according to each minimum requirement. This list is 
not exclusive or exhaustive and in an appropriate case 
Texas Department of Health (TDH) shall consider other 
relevant 
factors or tapes of efforts. The TDH shall consider not 
only the different kinds of efforts the Prime Contractor 
has made, but also the quantity and intensity of those 
efforts. The Prime Contractor is requested to complete this 
form. 

(1) Did the Prime Contractor provide notices to at least 
five HUBs with the skills and 
ability to perform the type of work required ? 

(2) Did the Prime Contractor advertise in general 
circulatio4 trade associatio4 and/or 
minority/woman focus media conceming subcontracting 
opportunities ? 

(3) Did the Prime Contractor provide written notice to a 
reasonable number of HUBs allowing sufficient time for HUBs 
to participate effectively ? 

(4) Did the Prime Contractor divide the contract work into 
the smallest feasible portions in order to increase HIJB 
participation ? 

(5) Did the Prime Contractor document reasons for rejection 
? 
(5a) Was a written rejection notice including the reason 
for rejection sent to the rejected HUB ? 

(5b) Was a meeting held between the Prime Contractor and 
the price rejected HU13 to discuss the rejection?

(6) Did the Prime Contractor follow up initial 
solicitations of Interest by continuing certified HUBs to 
determine with  certainty whether the HUBs were interested 
? 

(7) Did the Prime Contractor provide HUBs with adequate 
information about bonding, insurance, the plans, 
specifications, scope of work and requirements of the 
contract? 

(8) Did the Prime Contractor negotiate in good faith with 
interested HUBs, not rejecting HUBs who qualify as lowest 
and responsive vendors ? 

(9) Did the Prime Contractor effectively use the services 
of available minority and women; community organizations 
contractor groups; local, State, and federal business 
assistance offices, and other organizations that provide 
assistance in the identification 
of HUBs ?
