              ENGlobal Completes Strategic Acquisition;
                 Control System Capabilities Expanded

    HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 3, 2003--ENGlobal Corporation
(AMEX:ENG) announced today that its subsidiary, ENGlobal Technologies,
Inc., has purchased all of the ownership interest of Senftleber &
Associates, L.P. ("Senftleber"), a Houston-based provider of technical
personnel with expertise in SCADA systems ("Supervisory Control And
Data Acquisition"). Terms of the agreement were not disclosed.
    Operating companies, such as pipelines and utilities, utilize
SCADA systems extensively to monitor the status of and to control
remote facilities from a centralized master station. Senftleber's
activities are specifically focused on master station installations,
which are the hub of these communication systems. This strategic
acquisition allows ENGlobal to expand its capabilities with respect to
the specification, programming and maintenance of SCADA master
stations. To date, ENGlobal's SCADA work has been primarily focused on
the design and automation of remote facilities that communicate with
the SCADA master station.
    Senftleber was originally founded in 1988 by the late Mr. Al
Senftleber, a well-respected pioneer in the SCADA industry. The
company produced over $2 million in revenues during each of the last
three calendar years. It is expected that the company will adopt the
ENGlobal Technologies name after a short transition period.
    "The acquisition of Senftleber adds valuable technical
capabilities to ENGlobal Technologies, which can be utilized by many
of our existing clients," stated Michael L. Burrow, P.E., Chairman and
CEO of ENGlobal. "While this acquisition is relatively small, we are
continuing negotiations with several larger potential acquisition
candidates as we continue our efforts to execute on our acquisition
strategy."
