Smart Approach is pleased to announce that Lockheed Martin, the Company's
partner in the recently awarded "Specialised Security Training Contract" with
the Transportation Security Administration which provides security service to
American aviation, has renewed its licence to use the Smart Approach Screener
suite of products for a further year in its programme of threat recognition
training for security personnel across all airports in the United States. The
contract is valued at US$1.2 million over the next 12 months, including support
and maintenance. This contract confirms Smart Approach as the primary supplier

principle screener product.
The Company also announces that Chris Goulden, Business Development Director,
has resigned with immediate effect. His duties have been taken over by Mike
