CANADA POST SELECTS CGI TO NEGOTIATE THE CREATION OF A NEW INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SERVICES COMPANY

CGI Group (CGI) (NYSE: GIB, TSE:GIB.A), today announced that it has been selected by Canada Post to enter into negotiations for the creation of a jointly owned information technology (IT) services company. It is planned that the new firm will provide IT services, including e-business solutions, to the Canada Post group of companies, including Purolator Courier Limited and Progistix Solutions, as well as to other postal organizations worldwide. Annual revenue of the newly created firm is expected to be over CDN$200 million.

Through this new firm, the Canada Post group of companies will have access to world-class IT services at a more competitive cost thus allowing them to further leverage the power of IT for competitive advantage. The firm will lead in the development and integration of IT-enabled business solutions, including e-business solutions, geared for not only the Canada Post group of companies' customers, but also for their employees and their work environment.

"We are extremely excited and proud to be selected for this next step on this important venture," said Serge Godin, chairman and chief executive officer of CGI. "We are also pleased about entering a new and exciting sector. We will commit the necessary financial, technological and human resources to ensure the success and growth of the new firm. We are confident that together, integrating our respective talents, we can grow postal solutions to a higher level and in doing so become a leading-edge provider on the international postal scene."

"In the fast paced world of e-commerce, the Canada Post group of companies must be able to rely on supporting information technology services and management capabilities that reflect state-of-the-art technology and best practices," said Philippe L. Lemay, Canada Post's executive vice-president, business development. "This takes us a step closer to creating a flexible, customer-focused, world-class information technology services provider to meet this requirement."
