PROSPECTUS
INFORMATION ANALYSIS INCORPORATED
1,510,896 Shares of Common Stock
$.01 Par Value
This Prospectus relates to 1,510,896 shares of the common stock, $.01 par
value, (the "Shares") of Information Analysis Incorporated, a Virginia
corporation (the "Company"), which may be offered from time to time by the
selling shareholders named herein (the "Selling Shareholders"). The Company will
not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the Shares. The Company will
bear the costs relating to the registration of the Shares estimated to be
approximately $16,744.
The Shares are registered as a result of the Company's agreement to register
the Shares in connection with certain transactions. The Company has been advised
by each Selling Shareholder that each Selling Shareholder expects to offer his,
her or its Shares to or through brokers and dealers to be selected by the
Selling Shareholder from time to time. In addition, the Shares may be offered
for sale through the Nasdaq SmallCap Market, in the over-the-counter market,
through a market maker, in one or more private transactions, or a combination of
such methods of sale, at prices and on terms then prevailing. Each Selling
Shareholder may pledge all or a portion of the Shares owned by him, her or it as
collateral in loan transactions. Upon default by any Selling Shareholder, the
pledgee in such loan transactions would have the same rights of sale as such
Selling Shareholder under this Prospectus. Each Selling Shareholder may also
transfer the Shares owned by him, her or it in other way not involving market
makers or established trading markets, including directly by gift, distribution,
or other transfer without consideration, and upon any such transfer the
transferee would have the same rights of sale as such Selling Shareholder under
this Prospectus. Each Selling Shareholder and any brokers or dealers through
whom sales of the Shares are made may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the
meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, and the commissions or discounts or other
compensation paid to such persons may be regarded as underwriters' compensation.
The Shares are traded on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market under the symbol IAIC.
The average of the high and low prices of the Shares as reported on the Nasdaq
SmallCap Market on January 13, 1998 was $17.375 per Share.
THE SHARES OFFERED UNDER THIS PROSPECTUS ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RISKS.
SEE, "RISK FACTORS BEGINNING AT PAGE 3.

RISK FACTORS
AN INVESTMENT IN THE COMPANY INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK.
THE FOLLOWING RISK FACTORS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED CAREFULLY BEFORE PURCHASING THE
COMMON STOCK OFFERED HEREBY.
Attracting and Retaining Qualified Personnel. The Company's
historic business and the further development, support and marketing of UNICAST,
the Company's proprietary Year 2000 software remediation tool, involve the
delivery of quality services of a professional nature and are very
labor-intensive. The Company's success depends in large part upon its ability to
attract, develop, motivate and retain qualified personnel. Qualified personnel
in the information technology field are in great demand and are likely to remain
so for the foreseeable future. There can be no assurance that the Company will
be able to continue to attract and retain a sufficient number of qualified
personnel in the future. The Company's inability to hire sufficient qualified
personnel could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
financial condition and results of operations.
Management of Growth. The success of the UNICAST software
could result in rapid revenue and employee growth for the Company, thereby
placing significant demands upon the Company's management and other resources.
To manage this growth effectively, the Company will be required to continue to
develop and improve its operational, financial and other internal systems as
well as its business development capabilities. The Company's inability to
effectively manage its growth and engagements could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
3
Potential Liability for Claims. The Company is attempting to
limit its exposure to users of UNICAST by not warranting the product to remedy
all Year 2000 deficiencies in a given system. Nevertheless, notwithstanding the
lack of any warranties, should UNICAST not perform as intended the Company
recognizes that potential claims could be asserted against it. In addition, the
Company will also attempt to limit its exposure for any consequential damages
that any users of UNICAST claim they suffer as a result of the product not
performing as users anticipate. No assurances can be given that the Company's
efforts will be successful to limit or reduce the extent of its liability if
UNICAST fails to achieve the levels of remediation intended from its use.
Competition. The information technology service market is
highly competitive. The Company anticipates there are and will be a number of
competitors for Year 2000 engagements. Some of these competitors include large
accounting firms, systems consulting and implementation firms, application
software firms, service groups, general management consulting firms, and
programming companies. Many of these competitors have significantly greater
financial, technical and marketing resources than the Company and greater name
recognition. There can be no assurance that the Company can compete successfully
with its competition.
Reliance Upon Executive Officers and Key Employees. The
success of the Company is highly dependent upon the efforts and abilities of its
executive officers and key employees. The loss of the services of any of these
executive officers and key employees for any reason could have a material
adverse effect upon the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company will
be able to attract additional key employees.
Fluctuations in Quarterly Operating Results. Revenue
associated with the UNICAST software product could cause the Company's revenues
and earnings to fluctuate in the future from quarter to quarter based on such
factors as the number, size and scope of the projects in which the Company is
engaged, the contractual terms and degree of completion of such engagements, the
accuracy of estimates or resources required to complete ongoing engagements, the
level at which UNICAST software is licensed by sublicensees and general economic
conditions.
Need for Additional Capital. If revenue projections are not
met or if the Company must devote greater resources to UNICAST than it now
anticipates, the Company may be required to seek additional capital. There is no
assurance that such capital will be available or available on terms acceptable
to the Company.
Collaborative Efforts. The Company's success, in part, in
the implementation of UNICAST will depend on its ability to contract with other
parties engaged in Year 2000 remediation efforts. There can be no assurance that
the Company will be able to obtain the number and type of collaborative efforts
it believes will be required to achieve the objectives it has established for
UNICAST. In particular, the termination or disruption of the Company's
relationship with Computer Associates International, Inc. could have a
significant negative impact on the Company.
4
Intellectual Property Rights. The Company believes that all
of the software it develops for its clients as well as UNICAST does not infringe
upon the intellectual property rights of others and that the Company has all
rights necessary to utilize the intellectual property employed in its business.
The Company is subject to the risk of litigation asserting infringement of third
party intellectual property rights. Any such claims could require the Company to
spend significant sums in litigation, pay damages, develop non-infringing
intellectual property or acquire licenses to the intellectual property which is
the subject of asserted infringement. The Company relies upon a combination of
non-disclosure and other contractual arrangements and trade secret and copyright
laws to protect its intellectual property rights. There can be no assurance,
however, that the steps taken by the Company will be adequate to deter
misappropriation of proprietary information or that the Company will be able to
detect unauthorized use and take appropriate steps to enforce its intellectual
property rights.
THE COMPANY
The Company was organized in 1979 . The Company develops
application software and offers related services including software conversions,
information systems reengineering, and systems integration. Beginning in 1996,
the Company began a concentrated effort to enhance its software conversion
product to remedy the Year 2000 problem resident in certain computing
environments. The Company's Year 2000 solution evolved from a software tool
which the Company acquired in August 1996. The product, UNICAST, was initially
developed as a reengineering computer language tool which facilitated migration
from older types of computer languages to more current languages. The Company
has dedicated its development efforts to broadening UNICAST's capabilities to
create a line of software products with environment- or language-specific
components. The Company has also conducted a marketing campaign aimed at
establishing alliances with leading system integrators and product marketing
organizations to license UNCAST for Year 2000 use in large-scale production
environments. In March, 1997 the Company entered into an agreement with Computer
Associates International, Inc. ("CA") to incorporate UNICAST within CA's Year
2000 suite of software tools.
The Year 2000 problem generally derives from software
applications in which a two-digit date representation depicts a year with the
century indicator fixed as "19" thereby creating processing problems for data or
transactions which refer to the year 2000 and subsequent years. UNICAST offers
an integrated set of advanced tools to automate Year 2000 remediation or
modernization. UNICAST converts programming languages, data management software,
job control languages, and user interface programs at the source code level.
UNICAST's Year 2000 approaches include date expansion, windowing, and
compression. UNICAST allows users to migrate to more current languages,
databases or platforms. For example, UNICAST users can translate from a closed
mainframe environment to an open UNIX environment.
Apart from UNICAST, the Company pursues business
opportunities consistent with its capabilities as an information technology
professional services provider. The Company's professional services offerings
include transition engineering, software development, feasibility and
requirements analysis, systems planning analysis and design, data base design
and management, and project management. The Company's clients have included,
among others,
5
Arbitron, MCI, Computer Sciences Corporation, IBM, Sprint, Citibank, the United
States Customs Service, the United States Department of Energy, the United
States Army, the United States Air Force, the Veterans Administration and the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
The Company is a Virginia corporation. The mailing address
and telephone number of the Company's principal executive offices is 11240
Waples Mill Road, Suite 400, Fairfax, Virginia 22030 (703) 383-3000 and its
electronic mail address is iai2000@infoa.com.
RECENT EVENTS
Between January 9 through January 14, 1998, the Company
raised approximately $6.0 million in capital from private sales of shares of its
Common Stock to holders through the sale of 545,155 shares at a price of $11.00
per share.
In September, 1997, the Company announced an agreement with
CACI International Inc which extends an alliance between CACI and CA to provide
advanced Year 2000 solutions. CACI, with annual revenues of approximately $275
million, is an international information systems and technology service
provider. In the same month the Company announced the award of a Year 2000
services contract from Commonwealth Industries, Inc. ("CII") in which UNICAST
will process Year 2000 compliance and conversion in CII's manufacturing system.
CII, with annual revenues of approximately $1.17 billion, is North America's
largest manufacturer aluminum sheet and through a subsidiary is the world's
largest manufacturer of flexible aluminum conduit.
In July-August, 1997, the Company announced the appointments
of Brendan J. Dawson as President and Chief Operating Officer, Kevin Coyne as
Senior Vice President and Timothy C. Summers as Vice President of Development.
Messrs. Dawson, Coyne and Summers have substantial experience in software
applications development and systems management.

DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION
ON INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers, or persons
controlling the Company the Company has been informed that in the opinion of the
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in therein
and is therefore unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company in
the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of competent
jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by
the final adjudication of such issue.

behalf of a shareholder in the right of the Corporation, an
officer or director of the Corporation shall not be liable
for any damages assessed against such officer or director
arising out of a single transaction, occurrence or course of
conduct. However, the liability of an officer or director
shall not be so limited if the officer or director engaged
in willful misconduct or a knowing violation of the criminal
law or of any federal or state securities law, including,

Item 16. List of Exhibits.
The Exhibits to this Registration Statement are listed in the Index to
Exhibits on page 12.

arising after the effective date of this registration
statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment
thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate,
represents a fundamental change in the information set
forth in this registration statement. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of
securities offered (if the total dollar value of
securities offered would not exceed that which was
registered) and any deviation from the low or high end
of the estimated maximum offering range may be
reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the
Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the
aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no
more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate
offering price set forth in the "Calculation of
Registration Fee" table in the effective registration
statement;

(iii) To include any material information with respect to
the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in
this registration statement or any material change to

do not apply if the information required to be included
in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is
contained in periodic reports filed by the Company
pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange
Act that are incorporated by reference in the
registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the 1933 Act,
each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and
the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any
of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.
(4) For purposes of determining any liability under the 1933 Act, each

any employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of
the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration
statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to
the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at
