INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Participants and Plan Committee of the
ACS Shared Services Savings Plan
We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits
of ACS Shared Services Savings Plan ("Plan") as of December 31, 2000 and 1999,
and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for
the year ended December 31, 2000. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on the financial statements based on our audit.
Except as discussed in the following paragraph, we conducted our audit in
accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. 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.
As permitted by 29 CFR 2520.103-8 of the Department of Labor's Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974, the plan administrator instructed us not to perform, and
we did not perform, any auditing procedures with respect to the information
summarized in Note 6, which was certified by Connecticut General Life Insurance
Company, the trustee of the Plan, except for comparing the information with the
related information included in the financial statements and supplemental
schedules. We have been informed by the plan administrator that the trustee
holds the plan's investment assets and executes investment transactions. The
plan administrator has obtained a certification from the trustee as of and for
the year ended December 31, 2000 that the information provided to the plan
administrator by the trustee is complete and accurate.
In our opinion, except for the effects of such adjustments, if any, as might
have been determined to be necessary had we performed procedures with respect to
the information summarized in Note 6, the financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits
of the plan as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the changes in net assets
available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2000 in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT (CONTINUED)
Our audit of the Plan's financial statements were conducted for the purpose of
forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The
supplemental schedule on page 11 is presented for the purpose of additional
analysis and is not a required part of the basic 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.
The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied
in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, except for
the effects on the Schedule of Assets Held For Investment Purposes of such
adjustments, if any, as might have been determined to be necessary had we
performed procedures with respect to the information summarized in Note 6 as
described in the second preceding paragraph, are fairly stated in all material
respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

The following description of the ACS Shared Services, Inc. (Company) Savings

GENERAL
The Plan was established on April 1, 1998 and is subject to the provisions of
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) and Section 401(a)
of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) of 1986. The Plan has not received a

the applicable provisions of the IRC.
Participants in the Plan have the option of investing their contributions to the
Plan in the following funds:

FUNDING
The Plan is a defined contribution plan wherein participants elect to reduce
their compensation and have such reductions contributed to the Plan on their
behalf. The Plan covers employees of the Company who are not covered by a
collective bargaining agreement, who have one year of service, attained the age
of 18, have at least 500 hours of service, and elect to participate.
Participating employees may contribute up to fifteen percent of covered
compensation through payroll deductions or the maximum amount permitted under
applicable Internal Revenue Service provisions. The Company may make a
discretionary contribution to the Plan based on a percentage of employee
compensation and Company profitability as decided by the Company's Board of
Directors. Matching contributions are funded bi-weekly. For the year ended
December 31, 2000, the Company made matching contributions of 100% up to 3% of
employee compensation.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
DECEMBER 31, 2000
NOTE 1. PLAN DESCRIPTION (CONTINUED)
ALLOCATION
Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contribution and
allocated to each participant's account upon receipt. Investment income or loss
is allocated daily based on the ratio of each participant's account balance at
the end of each day.
VESTING
Employee contributions are 100% vested. Employer matching contributions have the
following vesting schedule:
Years of Vesting Service Vested Interest
------------------------ ---------------
Less than 1 0%
1 but less than 2 20%
2 but less than 3 40%
3 but less than 4 60%
4 but less than 5 80%
5 or more 100%
PARTICIPANT NOTES RECEIVABLE
Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to a
maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50 percent of their account balance.
Loan transactions are treated as a transfer to (from) the investment fund and
from (to) the Participant Notes fund. Loan terms range from 1-5 years or within
a reasonable time if the purpose of the loan is to acquire a primary residence.
The balance in the participant's account secures the loans. The interest rates,
unless otherwise determined by the trustee, range from 9 percent to 10.5
percent. Principal and interest is paid ratably through weekly payroll
deductions. Participant notes receivable are valued at cost which approximates
fair values.
TERMINATION
The Company's Board of Directors may terminate the Plan at any time. Upon
termination, the Board of Directors may elect to distribute to each participant,
or his or her beneficiary, the proportionate share of the Plan's assets as
determined by the individual account balances on the date of termination, or
continue the existence of the trust for the purpose of paying benefits as they
become due under the terms of the Plan. In addition, upon termination of the
Plan, participants' vested interest in employer contributions shall be 100%.
Upon termination of service, a participant may elect to receive either a
lump-sum amount equal to the value of his or her account, or one of various
installment payments available under the Plan.
FORFEITURES
The Company may reduce employer contributions by forfeitures occurring during
the Plan Year that are not used to pay Plan expenses. At December 31, 2000, the
Plan maintained a balance of $7,085 in a forfeiture account.

DECEMBER 31, 2000
NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
This summary of significant accounting policies of the Plan is presented to
assist in understanding the financial statements. The financial statements and
notes are representations of the Plan's administrator, who is responsible for
their integrity and objectivity. The accounting policies conform to generally
accepted accounting principles and have been consistently applied in the
preparation of the financial statements.
ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires the plan administrator to make estimates and
assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures, such as fair
value. Accordingly, actual results may differ from those estimates.
INVESTMENT VALUATION AND INCOME RECOGNITION
CIGNA Retirement and Investment Services holds the Plan's investments. The fair
value per unit/share is stated at quoted market prices. Purchases and sales of
securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on
the accrual basis.
The Plan presents, in the statement of changes in net assets available for
benefits, the net appreciation (depreciation) in the fair value of its
investments which consists of the realized gains or losses and the unrealized
appreciation (depreciation) on those investments.
PAYMENT OF BENEFITS
Benefit payments are recorded when paid.
NOTE 3. INCOME TAX STATUS
The Plan has not received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue
Service as of the report date. However, the Plan administrator and the Plan's
tax counsel believe that the Plan complies with the applicable provisions of the
IRC. Therefore, no provision for income taxes has been included in the Plan's
financial statements.
NOTE 4. TERMINATED EMPLOYEE INFORMATION
The Plan holds balances of $218,585 for 22 terminated employees at December 31,
2000.

Fidelity Advisor Equity Growth 235,982

NOTE 6. INFORMATION CERTIFIED BY TRUST COMPANY
Under the Department of Labor's ("DOL") regulations, certain assets and related
information held by a bank, trust company, or similar institution or an
insurance company that is regulated and subject to periodic examination by a
state or federal agency does not have to be audited, provided the plan
administrator exercises this option and the institution holding the assets
certifies the required information. CIGNA has provided certification as to the
completeness and accuracy of all information presented in the accompanying
statements of net assets available for plan benefits as of December 31, 2000,
and in the statement of changes in net assets available for plan benefits for
the year then ended, except for participant loan information. The accompanying
supplemental schedule also includes information certified by CIGNA as being
complete and accurate except for information related to participant loans and
investment costs.
NOTE 7. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Plan invests in units of pooled separate accounts managed by a subsidiary of
CIGNA, who acts as custodian of the Plan's assets as defined, by the Plan. These
transactions qualify as party-in-interest transactions. However, they are exempt
from the prohibited transaction rules.
NOTE 8. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
It is anticipated that the Plan's assets will be consolidated into a
multi-employer plan of Affiliated Computer Services (parent company) as of July
1, 2001.
