Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Plan Administrator of the
CIBER, Inc. Savings 401(k) Plan:

        We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits of CIBER, Inc. Savings 401(k) Plan as of December 31, 2003, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

        We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

        In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan at December 31, 2003, and the changes in its net assets available for benefits for the year then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

        Our audit was performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedules of assets (held at end of year) as of December 31, 2003, and delinquent participant contributions for the year then ended, are presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. These supplemental schedules are the responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

  2003
  2002
CIBER, Inc. Common Stock   $ 10,819,747   $ 6,664,872
Principal Money Market Separate Account     23,215,787    
Principal Large Cap Stock Index Separate Account     11,103,152

        Net increase (decrease) in fair value of investments for the years ended December 31, including realized gains and losses, was as follows:

 
  2003
  2002
 
CIBER, Inc. Common Stock   $ 6,376,039   $ (5,069,779 )
Mutual funds     21,714,529     (18,384,514 )
Pooled Separate Accounts     1,615,170      
   
 
 
    $ 29,705,738   $ (23,454,293 )
   
 
 

(4) Tax Status

        The underlying standardized prototype plan has received an opinion letter from the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") dated August 7, 2001, stating that the form of the plan is qualified under Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code ("Code"), and that any employer adopting this form of the plan will be considered to have a plan qualified under Section 401 of the Code. Therefore, the related trust is exempt from taxation. In accordance with Revenue Procedure 2002-6 and Announcement 2001-77, the Plan Sponsor has determined that it is eligible to and has chosen to rely on the current IRS prototype plan opinion letter. Subsequent to this opinion letter by the Internal Revenue Service, the Plan was amended. Once qualified, the Plan is required to operate in conformity with the Code to maintain its qualification. The plan administrator believes the Plan is being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code and, therefore, believes that the Plan is qualified and the related trust is tax exempt.

F-8



(5) Transfers of Assets from Merged Plans

        CIBER has acquired the outstanding common stock of certain companies that had their own similar defined contribution plans. During 2003 and 2002, certain of these plans were merged with the Plan and their respective assets were transferred into the Plan.

(6) Risks and Uncertainties

        The Plan provides for various investment options. Investments, in general, are exposed to various risks, such as interest rates, credit and overall market volatility. The Plan's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance of investments is limited to the carrying value of such investments. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investments, it is reasonably possible that changes in the value of investments will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits.

(7) Party-in-Interest Transactions

        Certain plan investments are units of pooled separate accounts, managed by Principal. Principal is the custodian and record keeper for the Plan and therefore these transactions are considered party-in-interest transactions.
