CGI-AMS Advantage ERP Suite Selected by City and County of Honolulu

 

Financial and Human Resources Systems to be Automated

 

Fairfax, Virginia – June 7, 2006 – CGI-AMS Inc., the wholly-owned U.S. operating

subsidiary of CGI Group Inc. (CGI) (TSX: GIB.A; NYSE: GIB), today announced that it is has been selected by the City and County of Honolulu to integrate its web-based AMS Advantage® ERP Suite to centralize and support core financial and human resources processes and systems such as general ledger, accounts payable, purchasing, fixed assets, payroll and other related services. The two and a half year contract is worth $10 million.

 

Honolulu’s existing systems were originally implemented separately and are currently maintained as such. The age of the systems and the technologies that were used to develop them have made it difficult and costly for the City and County to modify and improve them. By implementing an integrated ERP solution, the systems’ functionalities and flexibility will be greatly enhanced to better support modern business practices and mission critical functions of City government.

 

“We are pleased to add the City and County of Honolulu to our Advantage client family,” said Donna Morea, President of CGI-AMS. “Advantage will enable Honolulu to meet its business objectives, including lower total cost of ownership, more efficient business processes and better information for financial decision making.”

 

“Honolulu joins a growing list of governments that recognize the benefits of CGI’s Advantage software when compared to other conventional commercial ERP products offered by integrators with less government experience,” said Michael Keating, Senior Vice-President, CGI-AMS western region. “This contract demonstrates local government’s interests in solutions that truly support the unique needs of government, and Advantage is the only solution available on the market designed specifically for government. We are thrilled to expand our relationship with the City and County of Honolulu.”

 

AMS Advantage is used by more than 190 public sector clients, 47 of which have already committed to implementing the new Web-based AMS Advantage 3 solutions, and has a flexible, open architecture solution that facilitates decision-making, automates document workflow, decreases paperwork and improves customer service. CGI-AMS incorporates more than 35 years of government experience and knowledge in the public sector market.
