CIBER Ranks Among Top Smart 50 Companies Named by Smart Reseller.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 17, 1999--

CIBER, Inc. (NYSE: CBR), whose information tools and services help companies, government and higher education take full advantage of e.Business, was named No. 6 among the Smart 50 Companies by Smart Reseller magazine.

CIBER has made 40 acquisitions during the past six years and seen annual revenue grow to nearly $800 million from $50 million. In July, the Englewood, Colo.-based company began an effort of unifying its five operating names under the single brand "CIBER."

The company's "strategic acquisitions of smaller, rapidly growing firms account for part of CIBER's spurt and bolstered its existing expertise in key markets," Smart Reseller wrote in its Nov. 15, online edition. The Ziff-Davis (ZD Group) publication cited the hiring of Chief Operating Officer Paul Rudolph, formerly president of Electronic Data Systems Inc.'s electronic business unit, to develop CIBER's e.Business brand awareness as the company's "smart move" during the past year.

Smart Reseller made its selection from a pool of nearly 600 companies, evaluated on several criteria, including growth, during the past three years. Most of the companies in the new ranking experienced "phenomenal growth" because they caught the electronic business wave early on, and have evolved into total solutions providers and electronic business consultants, Smart Reseller said.

The top companies "have seen the future and capitalized on it," the publication wrote.

"We are gratified that Smart Reseller has recognized CIBER's accomplishments in putting our e.Business internet services model concept into operation for our clients in business, government and higher education," said Mac Slingerlend, Chief Executive Officer. "CIBER's e.Business Pyramid concept offers a full range of services - from helping a client define its e.Business strategy to managing supply chain issues and providing the technology and applications integration needed to operate in today's rapidly changing business environment."

CIBER provides innovative management consulting, internet services and other IT solutions to clients in business, higher education and government, and helps them leverage technology in today's e.Business-driven marketplace. Through a powerful mix of people, processes and the appropriate application of technology, CIBER delivers e.Business solutions that help clients gain knowledge from the market and drive their global competitive advantage, while creating value, reducing time and costs across the supply chain.
