                              PROJECT DESCRIPTION

                                  INTRODUCTION

This agreement covers efforts to be performed by CGI from March 1, 1996 through
September 6, 1996 for U S WEST in support of the Call Handling / Front End
Screen & Route (FES&R) project. The overall Call Handling/ FES&R project is
being undertaken by U S WEST to deliver two system deployments: Phase I in
February 1996, which has been delivered, and Phase II in July 1996. The
deliverables covered by this agreement are in support of both the Phase I and
Phase II deployments, however because of the time period covered, most of the
deliverables are in support of the Phase II Deployment.

The Call Handling Project Scope was defined in a Memorandum from Rod Morgan,
Technologies Project Manager, Call Handling dated September 5, 1995 and is
attached for reference to this agreement. CGI used this memorandum and the
FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS: CALL HANDLING CAPABILITIES document dated October 5,
1995 to estimate this agreement. Any changes to the Project Scope or the
Functional Requirements would require Change Orders to this agreement.

                         CGI ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

Based on the defined scope and deliverables and the architecture design and the
detailed design work that was done by CGI and U S WEST, the following roles and
responsibilities can be defined for the Call Handling Project:

    CGI will be responsible for detail design, development, test (unit test and
      component integration test), documentation, and delivery of the Routing
      Engine. The specific modules that CGI will be responsible for include:

       FES&R INTERFACE SERVER MODULE - this module handles FES&R Server call 
         routing requests from the VRU Interface Client Module.

       CALL CONTROL MANAGER (ROUTING ENGINE) - this module handles an 
         individual call, from the receipt of the new call request until a 
         routing message is returned for the call. Enhanced routing 
         capabilities will include [          ], [          ], [           ] 
         and [          ] requests.

       ACD DATA FEED MANAGER - this module receives periodic ACD queue status 
         data feeds from the MIS nodes.

       MARKET PROFILE LOADER - this module accepts the extract file from the

                                                                  MARCH 27, 1996


   7
       MARKET PROFILE LOADER - this module accepts the extract file from the
         [          ] Database, parses the [       ] associated with each      
         [          ] into the appropriate [       ], applies the [         ] 
         to [          ] and [           ] the [            ] to a [          ] 
         profile [          ] and a particular [              ] for [         ],
         and loads the [             ] table which associates each [           ]
         with the appropriate [              ] functional group for every
         possible [              ] per application. This module may also 
         load the [                ] data associated with each [              ] 
         into the FES&R database if required for reporting.

       ACCOUNT ACTIVITY LOADER (AA):  [                  ], identified by a 
         [            ] number, at times have activities associated with them.  
         These activities include [             ], [        ], and [         ]. 
         The [        ] Engine will access and utilize [         ] activity in 
         determining a [        ] for a call.  

       [                 ] Loader (PC):  [               ] are associated with 
         individual [            ].  These originate when a customer initiates 
         multiple transactions (calls) of the same type in a given time period. 
         The routing engine will use business rules that will indicate the 
         routing for a call when a [              ] for a customer exists.

   CGI will be responsible for the detailed design, development, test (unit test
     and component integration test), documentation, and delivery of the
     Verification / Validation Utilities. The five specific utilities that CGI
     will be responsible for include:

       RULE VALIDATION - this utility will validate both the [            ] 
         rules and the [          ] rules to test for validity, prioritization, 
         exclusiveness, and execution hit rate. The valid range, relational 
         operators, and combinations of all attributes found in if-condition 
         [            ] will be checked.
       [                  ] ANALYSIS - this utility will provide a summary 
         picture to the [            ] that combines data from several database 
         tables into one report that lists the [           ] used and their 
         selection criteria. This will provide the end user with a [          ]
         from [         ] to [         ].

       ACD GROUP VALIDATION - this utility will perform an analysis of ACD
         Group-related data; and provide checks for ACD Group definition
         completeness and provide reports on ACD Group utilization. This utility
         will also validate routing alternative lists in several ways.

       DATA COMPLETENESS CHECKS - this utility will be built to run as a part 
         of the installation or maintenance of the database. The scripts will 
         run completeness checks for such items as required minimal data in 
         reference tables and required minimal data in end-user populated 
         tables. More complicated completeness checks could include: 
         verification that each routing [           ] has a routing alternative 
         list defined for each reference location, verification that each 
         non-remote ACD group have a primary

                                                                  MARCH 27, 1996


   8



       and alternate resource selection rule, verification that each channel
       functional need assignment map to a valid (effective) [           ], and
       verification that each call reason map to a valid default [         ].

     INFORMATION REQUEST (PING-PONG) VALIDATION - this utility will ensure that
       there is no possibility of looping back with the same voice script being
       played multiple times to the calling customer. This utility will also
       monitor the call logs for ping-pong requests and provide a report to the
       end-users.

   CGI will be responsible for transferring the technology for the Routing 
     Engine and the Verification/Validation Utilities over to U S WEST by 
     September 6, 1996, assuming a May 29th start date.

   CGI will be responsible for the engineering management of the CGI resources
     and delivery management of the CGI Deliverables.

   CGI will be responsible for status reporting to U S WEST and participating 
     in status meetings.

   CGI will be responsible for system support (problem tracking and resolution)
     during the integration testing, the system testing, the production and
     user acceptance testing, and the deployment tasks.

                      U S WEST ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES(1)

   U S WEST will be responsible either directly or indirectly (from outside
     vendors) for the design, development, testing, integration, documentation
     and deployment of all other modules, including but not limited to:

                          DETAILED PROJECT DESCRIPTION

This agreement covers efforts to be performed by CGI from March 1, 1996 through
September 6, 1996 for U S WEST in support of the Call Handling/ FES&R project.
The deliverables involved are in support of both the Phase I and Phase II
Deliverables and are further described in Exhibit 4.

The work covered under this agreement will deliver software modules and
utilities that run on the specially configured Sequent and HP hardware. The
effort also includes the work necessary to integrate and test the CGI delivered
modules with the other hardware and software modules to be supplied by AT&T and
the U S WEST Project Team. The currently known dependencies, risks, and
assumptions associated with the integration of the CGI delivered modules with
the other hardware and software modules are specified in Exhibit 3 of this
agreement, which covers schedule and statement of work.

The Call Handling project activities for the Phase II Deployment include
extending the Routing Engine functionality, and specifically the [           ], 
to address routing based-on [            ] activity, [         ], [          ] 
and to incorporate the ability to request [         ] of or send [         ] to 
[         ]. These areas of system functionality are detailed further below 
in terms of tasks to be done for each.

A. [                    ]
     Customer accounts, identified by a billing telephone number, at times have 
       activities associated with them. These activities include [        ], 
       [         ], and [          ]. Routing Engine will access and utilize 
       [         ] in determining a route for a call. The tasks to accomplish 
       this include:

     Identify [         ] legacy systems, data provided, format. (Prepare 
       document describing specific data required, mapping of data elements to 
       legacy systems.)
     Define [ ] Table(s), access & update mechanisms (keys, etc.) Define and
       document table names, field names, all field values. (Review with team.

B. [                  ]
     [         ] are [           ] that apply to [           ] of [           ] 
     numbers. Examples are [           ], [           ], and [          ]. The 
     routing engine will access and utilize [            ] that apply in 
     determining a [            ] for a [            ].
     Tasks to accomplish this include:


     Identify [         ], [         ] rules. (Expected to be a small set. 
       Business rules straightforward. Prepare document describing [         ],
       1-2 pages.)
     Define [         ] Table(s), access & update mechanisms (keys, etc.). 
       Define and document table names, field names, all field values. (Review 
       with team. DBA installs tables in Oracle.)

C. [                         ] (   )
     [         ] are associated with [         ] customer accounts. These 
     originate when a [         ] initiates [         ] transactions (calls) 
     of the same type in a given time period. The routing engine will use 
     business rules that will indicate the routing for a call when a [        ]
     for a [         ] exists. The tasks for accomplishing this include:


     Identify [          ] (calls reasons that have associated [             ]).
       Identify [          ] rules. (Prepare document describing [           ].)
     Define [         ] Table(s), access & update mechanisms (keys, etc.).
       Define and document table names, field names, all field values. (Review
       with team. DBA installs tables in Oracle.)
     Build access methods (used by CCM), update methods (used by [          ]),
       associated data structures. (Document.  Unit test.  Code review.)

       design of SYAD toolset for [                  ] rules.

D. [                          ]

     The Phase I [         ] only provides a [         ] number to the 
     requesting [         ]. The Phase II [         ] will incorporate the 
     ability to request additional [         ] from the [         ], or to
     provide [           ] to the [           ] (by [           ] an 
     [        ] message). The [        ] will use business rules to determine
     when information should be requested of or sent to a [         ].

                                                                  MARCH 27, 1996

                                 PROJECTED COST

The total cost of the work to be performed will be $[ ] based on estimated time
and materials. No travel is anticipated. Should travel become a necessity for
the project, U S WEST agrees to pay CGI travel expenses for all pre-approved
trips.

It is planned that U S WEST will provide the majority of the platforms and
software for the project work environment and CGI will work at the U S WEST
site. Because this reflects a cost savings benefit to CGI, a [ ]% Computer &
Facilities discount is included in the project costs. Work requiring platforms
and software outside of this environment will be requested by U S WEST. It is
planned that U S WEST will provide availability to the nonstandard items to CGI
for the duration of the project should any be required.

U S WEST may, at its discretion, close the project or the involvement of CGI
resources by providing a written notice to the CGI Program Manager. If such an
eventuality occurs, the respective resources will be given a ramp down period
of [ ] weeks to find other work. Upon completion of the [ ] week ramp down
period, U S WEST will be obligated to CGI for the time and materials expended
up to and including the [ ] week ramp down.

Estimated costs for the project are provided below. Note that the Alliance,
Volume, and Facilities discounts are subtracted from the standard time and
material costs. The Volume discount for this Agreement considers the project as
a whole and applies the costs from previously signed development agreement(s)
with this Agreement when calculating Volume discount.

The following assumptions/dependencies were assumed in creating the above Work
Plans/Schedules and changes in the assumptions/dependencies may effect the
schedule, costs and deliverables listed in this agreement. CGI, when providing
their monthly project status reports, will identify issues and jeopardies that
are being caused by any of the following assumption/dependencies being
violated, and jeopardies will indicate that, unless the situation is resolved,
a change order to this agreement will have to be issued because of the
schedule/cost impacts.

                                                                  MARCH 27, 1996

                            ASSUMPTIONS/DEPENDENCIES

The Detailed Design for the CGI Module Extensions for the Phase II Routing
Engine Release can only be completed by March 18, 1996 if U S WEST provides the
client SMEs to detail and agree on the detailed functional requirements by
March 11, 1996.

The Development Environment: Sequent & HP machines, user ids, directory
structure, SCM tools, database structures and DDL, some data population, desks,
terminals, etc., must remain stable and available through out the Phase II
Development process.

Other modules/components not being developed/purchased by CGI must be in place
and configured by May 6, 1996, for the start date for the Integration Testing.
These include, but are not limited to: U S WEST VRU Scripting, the Physical
Integration U S WEST Test Database with the Routing tables populated
integration with all SYAD tool sets, and new voice scripts. It is assumed that
Integration Testing will be done using the Development Environment.

The system can not be released to System Test until it passes the Integration
   Test (with zero critical problems) and it can not be released to Production 
   without first passing System Test and the User Acceptance Testing.

User Acceptance Testing takes place in the System Test Environment. The
   development of the User Acceptance Test Plan and Criteria are the 
   responsibility of U S WEST and the Clients.

The System Test Environment must be established and made available by U S WEST
   by May 29, 1996. Establishment of the Environment is the responsibility of
   the U S WEST System Test Group.

The Production Data, specifically the Routing Tables, must be specified and
   populated by U S WEST by July 31, 1996 for Production Release.

The Production Environment must be established and made available by U S WEST
   by July 31, 1996.

                                                                  MARCH 27, 1996

Test Plans, Environments, Scenarios and Test Data must be identified by
   U S WEST and in place by the start of the Integration (5/6/96), User
   Acceptance (6/28/96), and System Test (5/29/96) Phases. The Test Data and
   Scenarios are the responsibility of the U S WEST Clients but will be
   shared by CGI.  The System Test Plan is the responsibility of the U S WEST
   System Test Group.

The dates for the final production builds for both Phase I & II are dependent
   on the dates that the U S WEST Project Manager sets for the start of each
   phases deployment, which may be sometime after the software has been
   accepted. CGI assumes that this date will be within two weeks after the
   software is accepted.

Additional, specific CGI assumptions include:

   The detailed design and prototyping tasks need to be completed before the
      programming and unit testing tasks can begin.
   Formal technology transfer from CGI to U S WEST will be done in parallel to
      system and user acceptance testing and production support for the Phase II
      Release. This requires that the U S WEST engineers who will take over
      support and maintenance of the technology be brought on-board by May 29,
      1996.

12.  The Customer Access Experience Scripts and associating routing data need
     to be specified for integration with the routing engine modules.

13. The Account Activity Module is dependant upon extracts from Legacy Systems.

CGI will deliver one copy of each Deliverable to the appropriate U S WEST
Project Manager along with a letter to be mutually signed by the parties,
acknowledging delivery, receipt and acceptance of the Deliverable. If U S WEST
does not sign and return the letter or provide a written list of the items that
are not in compliance with the project specifications within ten (10) business
days after delivery, then the Deliverable shall be deemed accepted.

In addition, CGI will provide U S WEST with monthly status reports including
blue angels (tasks completed/delivered), issues (yellow status), and jeopardies
(red status), as well as the hours expended by month and to date on specific
task breakdowns. A monthly meeting between CGI and U S WEST will be held to
review the project status and discuss any proposed changes, including
functionality/scope changes that would necessitate a change order being written
against this agreement.
