                     REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS



To the Administrative Committee of                        
  Policy Management Systems Corporation               
  401(k) Retirement Savings Plan

     We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for
plan benefits of the Policy Management Systems Corporation 401(k) Retirement
Savings Plan (the "Plan") as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the related
statements of changes in net assets available for plan benefits for the years
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 audits.

     We conducted our audits 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 audits provide 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 plan benefits of the Plan
at December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the changes in net assets available for plan
benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

     Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.  The supplemental schedules of assets 
held for investment purposes and reportable transactions are presented for
the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic
financial statements but are 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 fund
information in the statement of net assets available for plan benefits and 
the statement of changes in net assets available for plan benefits is
presented for purposes of additional analysis rather than to present the net 
assets available for plan benefits and changes in net assets available for 
plan benefits of each fund.  The supplemental schedules and fund information 
have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the 
basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all 
material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a 
whole.

1.   ESTABLISHMENT OF PLAN

     The Board of Directors of Policy Management Systems Corporation (the
     "Company") established the Policy Management Systems Corporation 401(k)
     Retirement Savings Plan (formerly the Policy Management Systems
     Corporation 401(k) Retirement Plan) (the "Plan") to provide a before-tax
     savings retirement program for all eligible employees of the Company. The
     Plan, which became effective on April 1, 1990, replaced the retirement
     plan portion of the Stock Purchase Savings Program for Employees of Policy
     Management Systems Corporation. Effective January 1, 1994, the retirement
     plan of Cybertek Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company,
     was merged into the Plan and all  assets available to Participants were
     transferred into the Plan. Effective January 1, 1995, the PMS, Inc. Profit
     - Sharing/401(k) Savings Plan was merged into the Plan and all assets
     available to Participants were transferred into the Plan.  Effective July
     1, 1995 the Policy Management Systems Corporation Profit Sharing Plan and
     Trust was merged into the Plan and all assets available to Participants
     were transferred into the Plan.  The Plan is subject to the requirements
     of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).

2.   PLAN DESCRIPTION

     General

     The following description of the Plan is provided for general information
     purposes only. Participants should refer to the Plan document for a more
     complete description of the Plan's provisions.

     Eligibility

     All employees of the Company and its participating affiliates, who are U.S
     citizens or U.S. residents, who have attained the age of 18, and who have
     completed any six-consecutive-month period of employment are eligible to
     participate in the Plan. A Participant who chooses not to enroll in the
     Plan when they are first eligible may elect to participate at a later
     date, in accordance with the terms of the Plan.

     Employee Contributions

     Prior to January 1, 1995, Participants could make contributions through
     payroll deductions, in 2% increments, of up to 6% of their eligible
     earnings on either a before-tax basis or an after-tax basis ( Basic Before-
     Tax and Basic After-Tax Contributions ), or a combination of both.
     Participants could also elect to make Additional Before-Tax or Additional
     After-Tax Contributions of 2% or 4% of their eligible earnings. Additional
     Contributions were not eligible for Employer Matching Contributions. The
<PAGE>11
 Participant s combined Basic and Additional Before-Tax and After-Tax
Contributions could not exceed 10% of a Participant s eligible earnings.

     Effective  January 1, 1995, Participants may contribute in 1% increments
     up to 6% of eligible compensation as either Before-Tax or Basic After-Tax
     Contributions to the Plan, and may contribute an additional 9% of eligible
     compensation as either Additional Before-Tax or Additional After-Tax
     Contributions to the Plan, not to exceed a total aggregate annual
     Contribution to the Plan of greater than 15% of eligible compensation. The
     maximum Before-Tax Contribution allowed by the Internal Revenue Code of
     1986 as amended (the  Code ), for 1995 was $9,240.
 
     Employer Matching Contributions

     Prior to January 1, 1995, as of the end of each calendar month, the
     Company contributed a matching amount equal to 50% of a Participant's
     first 6% of Basic Before-Tax Contributions or Basic After-Tax
     Contributions, but not both.  The Company did not match any Additional
     Before-Tax Contributions or any Additional After-Tax Contributions. The
     Employer Matching Contribution was allocated to the Participant's account
     as of December 31 each year only if the Participant was actively employed
     on December 31 and worked 1,000 or more hours during the Plan Year. Prior
     to October 1993, the Employer Matching Contributions were invested by the
     Trustee in Policy Management Systems Corporation common stock. By
     directive of the Administrative Committee of the Plan, Employer Matching
     Contributions made after October 1993 were invested in the Fidelity
     Retirement Government Money Market Trust.

     Effective January 1, 1995, the Company began matching 100% of the first 3%
     and 50% of the next 3% of the Participant s Basic Before-Tax or Basic
     After-Tax Contributions, but not both. Also, effective July 1, 1995,
     Employer Matching Contributions are invested in Policy Management Systems
     Corporation common stock.
 
     Allocations

     Participant s accounts are credited with the actual income derived from
     the investments in such accounts and with the actual expenses related to
     such accounts. 
<PAGE>12
          <PAGE>
     Investment Elections

     Each Participant is required to submit an election form to the Plan
     Administrator designating the allocation of the Participant s
     contributions among the Plan s investment funds in multiples of 5%. In
     addition, Participants may change the investment of contributions and may
     move their vested balances among investment funds at specified intervals
     during the year.

     In addition to the contributions specified above, Participants who receive
     a qualified distribution under section 401(a) of the Code, from any other
     tax qualified plan, may have all or part of such distribution transferred
     into the Plan. Such rollover contributions are subject to tax regulations
     imposed by the Code.

     Effective January 1, 1995, the Series EE Bond Fund was closed for
     investment. The assets have been allocated among the Plan's other
     investment funds in accordance with the respective participant elections.
     Also, effective July 1, 1995, the Smith Barney funds were added as
     investment electives of the Plan.

     Vesting

     A Participant is always 100% vested in his or her Before-Tax Contribution
     Accounts, After-Tax Contribution Accounts and Rollover Account. A
     Participant will generally become fully vested in his or her Employer
     Matching Contribution Account when the first of the following occurs: the
     Participant obtains five years of Credited Service; the Participant
     reaches his or her Normal Retirement Date; the Participant becomes
     Permanently Disabled; or on the date of the Participant s death.

     Forfeiture Allocations

     All Participant forfeitures are used to reduce future Employer Matching
     Contributions to the Plan.

     Benefit Payments

     The Participant s After-Tax Contributions may be withdrawn at any time
     upon written request of the Participant. In addition, a Participant may
     withdraw all or any part of his or her vested Employer Contributions
     transferred to the Plan from the Stock Purchase Savings Program and the
     vested Employer Matching Contributions on his or her Basic After-Tax
     Contributions, but only to the extent that such contributions have been in
     the Plan or the Stock Purchase Savings Program for at least two full Plan
     Years after the Plan Year in which such contributions were made.
<PAGE>13

     Loans

     Participants may apply for loans greater than $1,000 from the Plan,
     collateralized by their account balances and repaid through payroll
     deduction generally subject to the following terms:

     1)   The total loans of any Participant at any point in time shall not
          exceed the lesser of (I) 50% of the Participant s vested Account
          balance, (ii) the total amount held in the Participant s
          Contribution and Rollover accounts, or (iii) $50,000 adjusted on the
          volume of loan outstanding to the Participant during the previous
          one-year period.

     2)   Loans may not be made in such a manner as to favor Highly
          Compensated Employees, Officers or Shareholders.

     3)   No Participant shall be permitted to have more than one loan from
          the Plan issued and outstanding at any time, and no Participant
          shall be issued a new loan within six months of repayment of a Plan
          loan.

     4)   Interest charged on loans is determined by the Committee at a rate
          commensurate with interest rates charged for similar loans under
          general market conditions.

     5)   The length and terms of repayment may not exceed 5 years, unless the
          purpose of the loan is for the purchase of the Participant s
          principal residence, in which case the loan term may be extended by
          the Committee.

     6)   All amounts repaid are credited to the Participant s account.

     Administrative Expenses

     Administrative expenses of the Plan may be paid out of Plan assets if not
     paid by the Company. Administrative expenses paid by the Plan for the
     years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 were $720,911 and $277,303,
     respectively.

3.   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     Basis of Accounting

     The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual
     basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.     The
     preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted 
     accounting principles may require management to make estimates and
     assumptions that effect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
     disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
     financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of additions to and
     deductions from net assets available for plan benefits during the
     reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     Accounting for Benefit Distributions

     In accordance with guidance issued by the American Institute of Certified
     Public Accountants in 1993, the Plan accounts for distributions such that
     all amounts elected to be withdrawn and distributed from the Plan by
     Participants are not recorded as a liability in the Statement of Net
     Assets Available for Plan Benefits. As of December 31, 1995 and 1994,
     $815,161 and $748,643 have been allocated to accounts of persons who have
     withdrawn from participation in the earnings and operations of the Plan,
     but for which disbursement of those funds from the Plan has not yet been
     made. The following is a reconciliation to the amounts reported on Form
     5500:

          Net assets available for plan          1995           1994
            benefits as stated in the
            financial statements            $82,840,256    $34,624,465

          Less: Distributions payable          (815,161)      (748,643)

          Net assets available for plan
            benefits per Form 5500          $82,025,095    $33,875,822
              

     In addition, the report differs from the Form 5500 by the same amount for
     distributions on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets.

     Investments

     The Plan invests in open-ended funds managed by either Fidelity
     Investments, First Union National Bank or Smith Barney with the exception
     of the PMSC Stock Fund and Forfeiture Fund. Each fund is valued at quoted
     market prices to determine a current fund value. Investments in securities
     for which exchange quotations are readily available are valued at the last

<PAGE>15
 sale price, or, if no sale, at the closing bid price. Debt securities are 
valued in the same manner or in some other manner, if, in the opinion of the 
Board of Trustees, such other manner would more accurately reflect the fair 
value of such debt securities. Short-term investments (consisting primarily 
of money-market funds) are valued either at amortized cost or original cost 
plus accrued interest, both of which approximate market value.

     The realizable value of the Plan's investment options are subject to
     fluctuations in market conditions such that the value of the Plan's
     investments may significantly increase or decrease during a given period
     and result in a realizable value greater or less than the value at which
     such investments were purchased, resulting in unrealized or realized gains
     or losses. 

     The Plan presents in the statement of changes in net assets available for
     plan 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.


4.   TAX STATUS

     The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company by
     letter dated January 26, 1996, that the Plan is designed in accordance
     with Sections 401(k) and 401(a) of the Code. The Plan administrator
     believes that the Plan is designed and is currently being operated in
     compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code. 


5.   TERMINATION OF PLAN

     The Company expects and intends to continue the Plan in force
     indefinitely, but has reserved the right to amend or terminate the Plan as
     necessary. If the Plan were to be terminated, Participants would become
     fully vested and all assets of the Plan would be distributed to the
     individual Participants based upon the vested balances in their individual
     accounts the at date of termination.
