PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

CGI creates International Advisory Council

o Leading executives join Council - Jacques Bougie, Clarence Chandran, Harvey Golub and Michael Hepher

Montreal, Quebec, February 13, 2004 – CGI Group Inc. (CGI) (TSX: GIB.A; NYSE: GIB;) is pleased to announce the creation of an International Advisory Council. The Council’s mission is to provide strategic counsel towards CGI’s vision of becoming a world-class IT and BPS leader. CGI will leverage the Council’s experience to better serve its global clients. Council members are chosen for their track record as leaders of global corporations as well as their knowledge of key vertical economic sectors and geographic markets in the United States, Europe and Canada.

Jacques Bougie, the former CEO of Alcan, will take the leading role as chairman of the Council. Joining him as Council members are Clarence Chandran, Harvey Golub and Michael Hepher.

Since his early retirement from Alcan in 2001 as president and CEO, following 22 years holding various management positions with Alcan, Jacques Bougie has been involved in several community and business initiatives that capitalize on his ability to coach and advise. He has served and still serves on several boards of directors and has chaired several international associations.

Clarence Chandran had a 28-year career in the telecommunications industry before an early retirement in May 2001 as chief operating officer and director of Nortel Networks Corporation. Before this time he held several senior-level positions with Nortel worldwide. Clarence Chandran was appointed president, Business Process Services (BPS) and chairman of the board, India with CGI in November. As announced in a separate press release today, due to health reasons he is stepping down from his position but will remain as chairman of the board of CGI in India.

Harvey Golub is the retired chairman and CEO of American Express, where he spent 17 years, and possesses a tremendous amount of global experience in strategy and international operations management. Under his leadership, American Express redefined its core business resulting in record top and bottom line growth. Mr. Golub is also active on several boards and various philanthropic activities. He is based in New York.

Michael Hepher, an actuary by profession, has held several senior management positions for global leaders including British Telecommunications, where he was group managing director. He was also chairman and CEO of Lloyds Abbey Life and of Charterhouse Group. He is based in London, England.

The Council will complement CGI’s expertise in international markets helping CGI fine tune its strategies and tactics in keeping with its goal of helping its clients win and grow. The Council will do this through advising on differing business practices, pursuing opportunities as well as developing trends and identifying key influencers in business and government.

Serge Godin, chairman and CEO of CGI said: “I am honored to be collaborating with such high caliber business leaders. Together we will take steps towards further realizing the CGI dream of becoming a leading player in the IT services and BPS field. Creating the council is in response to our growing global clientele as we want to be with them every step of the way.”



Jacques Bougie, chairman of the International Advisory Council added: “As a team, the Council will pool together expertise to help CGI continue its global expansion. I am delighted to be associated with such a fine company. While Alcan was CGI’s first major industrial outsourcing contract over 20 years ago, CGI supported Alcan in achieving global leadership. I believe CGI has the wherewithal to continue to evolve as a global leader.”
