Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: Previous justifications for this information collection limited the burden to the amount of time needed for vendors to input sales data in the 72A Reporting System and remit IFF payments. However, GSA now recognizes that recordkeeping, quality assurance, reporting, and remittance should be included in the burden estimates. Since recordkeeping and quality assurance are the largest burden drivers for both vendors and the Government, the burden estimates for both the public and Government have increased. Additionally, the number of applicable contracts; namely, contracts included in the Transactional Data Reporting pilot are no longer included in this collection. Finally, the hourly rate for the Government has been updated to use a more current hourly rate.
