SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD NOR MAY
OFFERS TO BUY BE ACCEPTED PRIOR TO THE TIME THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT BECOMES
EFFECTIVE. THIS PROSPECTUS SHALL NOT CONSTITUTE AN OFFER TO SELL OR THE

189,828 Shares
KEANE, INC.
Common Stock
---------------------
The 189,828 shares of common stock, $.10 par value (the "Common Stock"), of
Keane, Inc. ("Keane" or the "Company") covered by this Prospectus may be offered
and sold, from time to time, by or on behalf of certain shareholders of the
Company identified under the caption "THE SELLING SHAREHOLDERS" (the "Selling
Shareholders"). Of the 189,828 shares of Common Stock covered by this
Prospectus (the "Shares"), 180,339 shares were issued to the Selling
Shareholders on January 30, 1998 in connection with the acquisition (the
"Quantum Acquisition") by the Company of Quantum Associates, Inc. d/b/a Omega
Systems ("Quantum"), and up to an additional 9,489 shares of Common Stock were
reserved for issuance to the Selling Shareholders in connection with certain
post-closing adjustments in accordance with the provisions of an Agreement and
Plan of Merger, dated as of January 12, 1998, by and among the Company, Alpha
Acquisition Corp., a subsidiary of the Company, and Quantum (the "Merger
Agreement"). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company has
agreed to register the Shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
to use its best efforts to cause the Registration Statement of which this
Prospectus constitutes a part to be declared and remain effective until the
earlier of (i) such time as all of the Shares have been sold by the Selling
Shareholders, or (ii) January 30, 1999. The Selling Shareholders have advised
the Company that they propose to sell, from time to time, all or part of the
Shares covered by this Prospectus on the American Stock Exchange (or through the
facilities of any national securities exchange or U.S. inter-dealer quotation
system of a registered national securities association, on which the Shares are
then listed, admitted to unlisted trading privileges or included for quotation),
in privately negotiated transactions, or in a combination of such methods of
sale. Such methods of sale may be conducted at market prices prevailing at the
time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or at
negotiated prices. The Selling Shareholders may effect such transactions
directly, or indirectly through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents acting on
their behalf, and in connection with such sales, such broker-dealers or agents
may receive compensation in the form of commissions, concessions, allowances or
discounts from the Selling Shareholders and/or the purchasers of the Shares for
whom they may act as agent or to whom they sell Shares as principal or both
(which commissions, concessions, allowances or discounts might be in excess of
customary amounts thereof). To the extent required, the names of any agents,
broker-dealers or underwriters and applicable commissions, concessions,
allowances or discounts and any other required information with respect to any
particular offer of the Shares by the Selling Shareholders, will be set forth in
a Prospectus Supplement. See "SELLING SHAREHOLDERS" and "PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION."
Certain restrictions on the ability of
<PAGE>
the Selling Shareholders to sell Shares owned by them are described below and
under "SELLING SHAREHOLDERS."
Certain Selling Shareholders, holding or having the right to acquire up to
an aggregate of 171,605 Shares as of the date of this Prospectus, have agreed
with the Company not to sell, exchange, transfer, distribute, pledge or
otherwise dispose of, or enter into any transaction to reduce his or her
interest in or risk relating to (whether by short sale or otherwise) or any
transaction which would result in a direct or indirect disposition of the Shares
until such time as the Company has published (within the meaning of Accounting
Series Release Nos. 130 and 135 published by the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission")) financial results covering at least 30 days of
combined operations of Quantum and Keane.
The Company will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of Shares
covered by this Prospectus. The Company will bear all expenses incurred in
effecting the registration of such Shares, including all registration and filing
fees, "blue sky" fees, printing expenses and all accounting and legal fees of
counsel to the Company, and the Selling Shareholders shall bear all brokerage or
underwriting expenses or commissions, if any, applicable to the sale of the
Shares. The Company and the Selling Shareholders have agreed to certain
indemnification arrangements with respect to the Offering. See "PLAN OF
DISTRIBUTION."
The Company's Common Stock is traded on the American Stock Exchange under

THE COMPANY

services for corporations, government agencies and healthcare facilities.
Keane's services and methodologies enable clients to leverage their existing
information systems capability and more rapidly and cost-effectively develop and
manage mission-critical software applications. The Company serves its clients
through two operating divisions: the Information Services Division ("ISD") and
the Healthcare Services Division ("HSD"). ISD, which accounted for
approximately 94% of the Company's revenues in 1996, provides software design,

markets and supports financial, patient care and clinical application software
for hospitals and long-term care facilities. The Company provides services
primarily to Fortune 1,000 companies, including AT&T Corporation, Eastman Kodak

McDonald's Corporation and Proctor & Gamble Company.
The Company understands that the staff of the Boston Regional Office of the
Commission (the "Staff") is conducting an investigation under a formal order
with respect to certain sales of the Company's Common Stock made on behalf of
the Keane Family Foundation (the "Foundation"), a charitable foundation of which
John F. Keane, Sr., Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of
Directors of Keane, is trustee, in a market transaction on November 30, 1995.
To the Company's knowledge: (i) the Staff has made a preliminary determination
to recommend that an action be brought against Mr. Keane and the Foundation
seeking disgorgement and an injunction against insider trading, and against Mr.
Keane seeking a penalty, and (ii) no findings or conclusions with respect to the
investigation have been made by the Commission. Mr. Keane and the Foundation
will have an opportunity to respond to the recommendation, and that response

RISK FACTORS
The Shares of Common Stock offered hereby include a high degree of risk.
The following risk factors should be considered carefully in addition to the
other information included or incorporated by reference in this Prospectus
before purchasing the Shares offered hereby. Except for the historical
information contained herein, the discussion in this Prospectus contains certain
forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. When used in
this Prospectus, the words "believes," "expects," "anticipates," "intends,"
"estimates," "should," "will likely" and similar expressions are intended to
identify such forward-looking statements. The cautionary statements made in
this Prospectus should be read as being applicable to all related forward-
looking statements wherever they appear in this Prospectus. The Company's
actual results could differ materially from those discussed here. Important
factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include those
discussed below, as well as those discussed elsewhere herein. The Company
undertakes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements,
whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Fluctuations in Operating Results. The Company has experienced and expects
---------------------------------
to continue to experience fluctuations in its quarterly results. Gross margins
vary based on a variety of factors including employee utilization rates and the
number and type of services performed by the Company during a particular period.
A variety of factors influence the level of the Company's revenues in a
particular quarter, including general economic conditions which may influence
its clients and potential clients to invest in their information systems or to
downsize their businesses, the number and requirements of client engagements,
employee utilization rates, changes in the rates the Company is able to charge
clients for its services, acquisitions by the Company and other factors, many of
which are beyond the Company's control. Since a significant portion of the
expenses of the Company do not vary relative to the Company's level of revenues,
if revenues in a particular quarter do not meet expectations, operating results
will be adversely affected, which may have an adverse impact on the market price
of the Company's Common Stock. In addition, many of the Company's engagements
are terminable without client penalty. An unanticipated termination of a major
project could result in an increase in underutilized employees and a decrease in
revenue and profits.
Risks Relating to Acquisitions. In the past five years, the Company has
------------------------------
grown significantly through acquisitions, and the Company's future growth may be
based in part on selected acquisitions. The Company's ability to expand
successfully by acquisitions depends on many factors, including the successful
identification and acquisition of businesses and management's ability to
integrate and operate the new businesses effectively. The Company competes for
acquisition candidates with other entities, some of whom have greater financial
resources than the Company. Increased competition for acquisition candidates
may result in fewer acquisition opportunities being made available to the
Company as well as less advantageous acquisition terms, including increased
purchase prices. The anticipated benefits from any acquisition may not be
achieved unless the operations of the acquired business are successfully
combined with those of the Company in a timely manner. The integration of the
Company's acquisitions requires substantial attention from management. The
diversion of the attention of management, and any difficulties encountered in
the transition process, could have an adverse impact on the Company's revenues
and operating results. In addition, the process of integrating the various
businesses could cause the interruption of, or a loss of momentum in, the
activities of some or all of these businesses, which could have an adverse
effect on the Company's operations and financial results.
Dependence on Personnel. The Company believes that its future success will
-----------------------
depend in large part on its ability to continue to attract and retain highly-
skilled technical and management personnel. The competition for such personnel
is intense. There can be no assurance that the Company will continue to attract
and retain personnel necessary for the development of its business.
-6-
<PAGE>
Highly Competitive Market. The custom software services market is highly
-------------------------
competitive and characterized by continual change and improvement in technology.
The market is fragmented, and no company holds a dominant position.
Consequently, the Company's competition for client assignments and experienced
personnel varies significantly from city to city and by the type of service
provided. Some of the Company's competitors are larger and have greater
technical, financial and marketing resources and greater name recognition in the
markets they serve than does the Company. In addition, clients may elect to
increase their internal information systems resources to satisfy their custom
software development needs. The Company believes that the bases for competition
in the software services industry include the ability to compete cost-
effectively, develop strong client relationships, generate recurring revenues,
utilize comprehensive delivery methodologies and achieve organizational learning
by implementing standard operational processes. In the healthcare software
systems market, the Company competes with some companies that are larger in the
healthcare market and have greater financial resources than the Company. The
Company believes that significant competitive factors in the healthcare software
systems market include size and demonstrated ability to provide service to
targeted healthcare markets. There can be no assurance that the Company will
continue to compete successfully with its existing competitors or will be able
to compete successfully with any new competitors.
Risks of Stock Volatility and Absence of Dividends. In recent years, the
--------------------------------------------------
stock market in general and the market for technology stocks, in particular,
including the Company's Common Stock, have experienced extreme price
fluctuations. There is a risk that stock price fluctuation could impact the
Company's operations. Changes in the price of the Company's Common Stock could
affect the Company's ability to successfully attract and retain qualified
personnel or complete necessary business combinations or other transactions in
the future. The Company has never paid any cash dividends on its capital stock,
and there can be no assurances that the Company will ever do so in the future.
RECENT EVENTS
On January 30, 1998, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital
stock of Quantum in exchange for 180,339 shares of its Common Stock. Within 30
days of the date of this Prospectus, the Company expects to issue up to an
additional 9,489 shares of the Company's Common Stock to the former shareholders
of Quantum pursuant to a post-closing purchase price adjustment. In addition,
in connection with the Quantum Acquisition, the Company, the representative of
the former shareholders of Quantum and State Street Bank and Trust Company, as
escrow agent, have entered into an Escrow Agreement, dated January 30, 1998,
providing, among other things, that 18,984 shares of the Company's Common Stock
received by such Quantum shareholders pursuant to the Quantum Acquisition will
be held in escrow to indemnify the Company in the event of any breaches of
representations, warranties or covenants made by Quantum in the Merger
Agreement.
Quantum, now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Keane with the name "Keane
Pittsburgh, Inc.", is an application development and software consulting company
based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The Quantum Acquisition was accounted for as
a pooling of interests.
USE OF PROCEEDS
The Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of Common Stock by
the Selling Shareholders.

in exchange for all of the outstanding shares of Quantum, and are expected to

(1) The number of shares beneficially owned is determined under rules
promulgated by the Commission, and the information is not necessarily
indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under such rules,
beneficial ownership includes any shares as to which the individual has sole
or shared voting power or investment power and also any shares which the
individual has the right to acquire within 60 days after the date of this
Prospectus through the exercise of any stock option or other right. The
inclusion herein of such shares, however, does not constitute an admission
that the Selling Shareholders are direct or indirect beneficial owners of
such shares. The Selling Shareholders have sole voting power and investment
power with respect to all shares of capital stock listed as owned by the
Selling Shareholders.
(2) Includes the maximum number of shares expected to be issued to the Selling
Stockholders in connection with certain post-closing adjustments in
accordance with the provisions of the Merger Agreement, which number is
equal to 5% of the total number of shares reflected in these columns.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The Selling Shareholders have advised the Company that the Shares covered
hereby may be offered and sold by the Selling Shareholders, or by pledgees,
donees, transferees or other successors in interest, in private or public
transactions, in transactions involving principals, in transactions involving
brokers, or by any other lawful methods. Sales through brokers may be made by
any method of trading authorized by any stock exchange or market on which the
Shares may be listed, including block trading in negotiated transactions.
Without limiting the foregoing, such brokers may act as dealers by purchasing
any or all of the Shares covered by this Prospectus, either as agents for others
or as principals for their own accounts, and reselling such Shares pursuant to
this Prospectus. Sales of Shares are, in general, expected to be made at the
market price prevailing at the time of each such sale; however, prices in
negotiated transactions may differ considerably. To the extent required, the
names of any agents, broker-dealers or underwriters and applicable commissions,
concessions, allowances or discounts and any other required information with
respect to any particular offer of the Shares by the Selling Shareholders, will
be set forth in a Prospectus Supplement. Each of the Selling Shareholders has
advised the Company that he, she or it does not anticipate paying any
consideration other than usual and customary broker's commissions in connection
with sales of the Shares. Each of the Selling Shareholders is acting
independently of the Company in making decisions with respect to the timing,
manner and size of each sale. The Company has not been advised of any
definitive selling arrangement at the date of this Prospectus between any
Selling Shareholder and any broker-dealer or agent.
In offering the Shares covered by this Prospectus, each of the Selling
Shareholders and any broker-dealers who execute sales for such Selling
Shareholder may be considered to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the
Securities Act, and any profits realized by such Selling Shareholder and the
compensation of such broker-dealers may be deemed to be underwriting discounts
and commissions.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, all expenses of registration of the Shares
will be paid by Keane, including Commission filing fees, and the Selling
Shareholders shall bear all brokerage or underwriting expenses or commissions,
if any, applicable to the sale of the Shares. The Company has agreed to
indemnify in certain circumstances each of the Selling Shareholders and any
underwriter and certain control and other persons related to the foregoing
persons against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities
Act. Each of the Selling Shareholders has agreed to indemnify in certain
circumstances the Company and certain related persons against certain
liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. The Company will

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Section 67 of Chapter 156B of the Massachusetts General Laws ("Section 67")
provides that a corporation may indemnify its directors and officers to the
extent specified in or authorized by (i) the articles of organization, (ii) a
by-law adopted by the stockholders, or (iii) a vote adopted by the holders of a
majority of the shares of stock entitled to vote on the election of directors.
In all instances, the extent to which a corporation provides indemnification to
its directors and officers under Section 67 is optional. The Registrant's
Articles of Organization provide that the Registrant shall, to the fullest
extent permitted by the Massachusetts Business Corporation Law, indemnify each
person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any
threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding by reason of the
fact that he or she is or was, or has agreed to become, a director of officer of
the Registrant, or is or was serving, or has agreed to serve, at the request of
the Registrant, as a director or officer of, or in a similar capacity with,
another organization, or in any capacity with respect to any employee benefit
plan of the Registrant, or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or
omitted in such capacity, against all expenses (including attorneys' fees),
judgments and fines incurred by such person or on his or her behalf in
connection with such action, suit or proceeding and any appeal therefrom.
However, the Registrant would not provide indemnification if the person seeking
indemnification has been adjudicated not to have acted in good faith in the
reasonable belief that his or her action was in the best interests of the
Registrant or, if applicable, the best interests of the participants in or
beneficiaries of the Registrant's employee benefit plans.
Article 6 of the Registrant's Articles of Organization, as amended,
eliminates the personal liability of the Registrant's directors to the
Registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of a director's
fiduciary duty, except to the extent Chapter 156B of the Massachusetts General
Laws prohibits the elimination or limitation of such liability.

Item 17. Undertakings.
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made,
a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act");
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising
after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most
recent post-effective amendment thereof) which,
II-2
<PAGE>
individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the
information set forth in this Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, any increase or decrease in the volume of securities offered (if
the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which
was registered) and any derivation from the low or high and of the
estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus
filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the
changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the
maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of
Registration Fee" table in the Registration Statement; and
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any
material change to such information in this Registration Statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the Company pursuant
to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Exchange Act"), that are incorporated by reference in this
Registration Statement.
(2) That, for the purposes of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus
shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities
offered therein, and the offering of such securities at the time shall be deemed
to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of
the offering.
The Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any
liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual
report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where
applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to
Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in this
Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered therein and the offering of such securities
at the time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the indemnification provisions described herein, or
otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities
and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event
that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the
payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action,
suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person
in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless
in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

[LETTERHEAD OF HALE AND DORR LLP APPEARS HERE]
February 13, 1998
Keane, Inc.
Ten City Square
Boston, MA 02129
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have assisted in the preparation of the Registration Statement on Form
S-3 (the "Registration Statement") filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"), relating to the registration for resale by the Selling
Shareholders named therein of 189,828 shares of common stock, $0.10 par value
per share (the "Shares"), of Keane, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation (the
"Company").
We have examined the Articles of Organization and the By-Laws of the
Company and all amendments thereto and the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated
January 12, 1998 by and among the Company, Alpha Acquisition Corp. and Quantum
Associates d/b/a Omega Systems (the "Merger Agreement"), and have examined and
relied on the originals, or copies certified to our satisfaction, of such
records of meetings, written actions in lieu of meetings, or resolutions adopted
at meetings, of the directors and stockholders of the Company, all as provided
to us by the Company, and such other documents and instruments as in our
judgment are necessary or appropriate to enable us to render the opinions
expressed below.
In our examination of the foregoing documents, we have assumed (i) the
genuineness of all signatures and the authenticity of all documents submitted to
us as originals, (ii) the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted
to us as certified, photostatic or facsimile copies, (iii) the authenticity of
the originals of the latter document, and (iv) the legal competence of all
signatures to such documents.
We express no opinion herein as to the laws of any stock or jurisdiction
other than the state laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and the federal
laws of the United States of America.
Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the
Shares have been duly authorized and, when issued in accordance with the
provisions of the Merger Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-
assessable.
It is our understanding that this opinion is to be used only in connection
with the offer and sale of the Shares while the Registration Statement is in
effect.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Commission as an
exhibit to the Registration Statement in accordance with the requirements of
Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act and to the use of our
name therein and in the related Prospectus under the caption "Legal Matters."
In giving such consent, we do not hereby admit that we are in the category of
persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the
rules and regulations of the Commission.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Hale and Dorr LLP
