CGI-AMS BRANDED UNDER CGI

Fairfax, Virginia, October 30, 2006 - CGI Group Inc. (TSX : GIB.A ; NYSE : GIB) today announced that its wholly owned U.S. subsidiary CGI-AMS will begin operating under the CGI brand as of November 1, 2006.

“With this name change, the transition to CGI is complete,” said Donna Morea, President of CGI’s U.S. operations and India. “In the two years since we became part of CGI, clients have responded well to our U.S. business model. CGI is recognized in the industry as a leader in client satisfaction. In 2006 alone, our U.S. sales increased more than 50 percent, and our client contract renewal rate was 97 percent.”

CGI and American Management Systems (AMS) joined forces in May 2004, merging both companies’ U.S. operations under the CGI-AMS name. At that time, the company announced that its U.S. business would transition to “CGI” in two years.
