Sacramento, California, June 30, 2004 — CGI-AMS, part of CGI Group Inc. (TSX: GIB.A; NYSE: GIB), today announced that the State of California has selected the company for strategic sourcing analysis and services to streamline the state’s procurement processes. Through this agreement, CGI-AMS will help the state better leverage the estimated $4.9 billion it spends on goods and services into buying power, based on economies of scale and private industry procurement best practices. The initiative will be funded through a specialized contract model whereby the company will be paid directly from the resulting savings.

The California Performance Review comprises a comprehensive examination of the state government to enable delivery of the best services to the public in the most efficient way. CGI-AMS will support the California Department of General Services (DGS) in identifying opportunities to negotiate new agreements with suppliers and implement other improvements to drive cost reductions and efficiency improvements. The agreements will result in greater value per taxpayer dollar for professional services and goods ranging from paper clips to delivery trucks.

We are honored to have been selected as the partner for this exciting new initiative.”
