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, 1997 and 1996, 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,  1997 and 1996, 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.

                        401(K) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN
                        NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                       
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  (the  "Plan")  to  provide  a  before-tax  savings
retirement program for all eligible employees of the Company.  The Plan became
effective  on April 1, 1990 and 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

     Participants  may  contribute  in  1%  increments  up  to  6% of eligible
compensation  as  either  basic 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
1997  was  $9,500.

EMPLOYER MATCHING CONTRIBUTIONS

     The  Company  matches  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.
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>

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 by phone 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.

VESTING

     A Participant is always 100% vested in his or her before-tax contribution
accounts,  after-tax  contribution  accounts  and  rollover  accounts.    A
Participant  will  become  fully  vested in his employer matching contribution
account  when  the first of the following occurs: the Participant obtains five
years of credited service; reaches normal retirement date; becomes permanently
disabled;  or  becomes  deceased.

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 matching contributions
on  his or her basic after-tax contributions, but only to the extent that such
contributions have been in the Plan for at least two full Plan years after the
Plan  year  in  which  such  contributions  were  made.

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, or (ii)
$50,000  adjusted on the volume of loans 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 Plan's Administrative
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  to ten years.

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

<PAGE>

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,  1997  and 1996 were $389,128 and $388,278, 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, 1997 and 1996, $212,012 and $360,819 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:

<TABLE>

                                                           1997          1996

Less: Distributions payable . . . . . . . . . . .         (212,012)     (360,819)
                                                      -------------  ------------

Net assets available for plan benefits per Form 5500  $118,061,407   $91,071,331 
                                                      =============  ============

</TABLE>

     In  addition,  the  financial statements differ 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, Smith Barney, Evergreen, or Putnam
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  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.

<PAGE>

     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  November  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  written  and is currently being operated in compliance with the
applicable  requirements  of the Code.  The Plan is exempt from federal income
taxes  under  section  501(a)  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 at
the  date  of  termination.


6.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

     The  Plan  purchases,  on behalf of Participants, shares of the Company's
common stock in accordance with individual Participant's investment elections.
During  the  Plan  year  ended  December  31, 1997, the Plan purchased 127,114
shares at an aggregate cost of $6,286,648 and sold 57,750 shares for aggregate
proceeds  of  $3,006,716 and realized gains of $347,647.  During the Plan year
ended  December  31,  1996,  the Plan purchased 109,549 shares at an aggregate
cost of $4,571,197 and sold 45,586 shares for aggregate proceeds of $2,084,743
and  realized  losses  of  $93,135.

     The  Plan  also  had  337,594  and 271,701 shares of the Company's common
stock  with  a  fair value of $23,484,051 and $12,532,208 at December 31, 1997
and  1996,  respectively.


7.  SECURITIES SETTLEMENT

     In  December  1994,  the  Company  reached  an  agreement,  which  was
subsequently approved on May 26, 1995, by the United Stated District Court for
the  District  of South Carolina, to settle its shareholder class action.  The
Plan,  as  an  eligible  shareholder,  received $239,366 as its portion of the
settlement  in  November  1996.   The proceeds were received by the PMSC Stock
Fund,  invested  in  PMSC  stock and allocated on a pro rata basis to eligible
participants.
