FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
June 15, 2000

Chicago Construction Network, Inc. teams up with LaborIndex.Com to provide a national rating system for contractors.

"Laborindex.com is the nation's premier resource for evaluating and rating
construction contractors on their ability to provide quality services and
operate a strong business operationally. Laborindex.com provides a unique
service to both contractors and those who use their services. General
Contractors, sub-contractors, trade associations, and local government are
all valuable customers within our system."

"Our goal is to standardize an industry by painting a clear picture of how a
construction business is operating. This detailed and easy-to-follow rating
format will indicate whether a flag must be raised on contractor's overall
health before proceeding with a contract."

"Our rating relationship does not cease after our initial review either. We
consistently check during the year to ensure that a contractor's rating does
not deviate from their previous standing. A strong business foundation must
be attained through quality operations. Timely reviews are essential."

"Chicago Construction Network feels this to be a positive movement for both contractors and consumers. As we build our database of contractors, until now, it was difficult for the consumer to identify qualifications. It also assists General Contractors and Construction Management firms in identifying whether Sub-contractors are licensed and qualified to take on their projects. As well, to assist smaller firms in identifying the weak areas that could jeopardize their company."
