Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Contingencies	Contingencies We are subject to various claims and litigation that arise in the ordinary course of business. The litigation process is inherently uncertain. Therefore, the outcome of such matters is not predictable. As previously reported, we are engaged in legal proceedings in Germany in connection with our acquisition of a controlling interest in Novasoft AG (now known as Ciber AG) in 2004. In August 2006, we completed a buy-out of the remaining minority shareholders of Novasoft. Certain of those former minority shareholders challenged the adequacy of the buy-out consideration by initiating a review by the district court in Mannheim, Germany. The court made a determination in 2013 which is now under appeal by the plaintiffs. Based on information known to us, we have established a reserve that we believe represents a probable estimate of the loss. We are unable to predict the outcome of this matter. As previously reported, a lawsuit titled CamSoft Data Systems, Inc. v. Southern Electronics, et al., was filed initially in October 2009 in Louisiana state court against numerous defendants, including Ciber. The lawsuit was subsequently removed to federal court in the Middle District of Louisiana and the complaint was amended to include additional defendants and causes of action including antitrust claims, civil RICO claims, unfair trade practices, trade secret, fraud, unjust enrichment, and conspiracy claims. The suit involves many of the same parties involved in related litigation in the state court in New Orleans, which was concluded in 2009 when Ciber settled the New Orleans suit with the plaintiffs, Active Solutions and Southern Electronics, who were CamSoft's former alleged joint venturers and are now co-defendants in the current lawsuit. Ciber is vigorously defending the allegations. Proceedings in the federal appellate courts concluded in January 2015 with the matter remanded back to state court. Based on information known to us, we have established a reserve that we believe represents a probable estimate of the loss. We are unable to predict the outcome of this litigation. A lawsuit titled Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission. v. Ciber, Inc., and Dennis Miller was filed in January 2015 in Pennsylvania state court against Ciber and a former employee. The complaint generally alleges breach of contract, negligent misrepresentation, violation of an anti-bid-rigging statute and procurement code, and conspiracy to commit fraud with and by Ciber’s own employee. These claims arise out of a project in 2004-2008 to implement a new finance and administrative system for the Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission (“PTC”). PTC alleges $38 million in damages. We believe the claims are without merit and Ciber is vigorously defending against these allegations. At this time, we are unable to predict the outcome of this litigation.
