Short Statement: The total cost burden for Items 12 & 13 decreased from $418,336 (2015 estimate) to $51,256.91 (2018 estimate). The total cost burden for Item 14 decreased from $549,066 (2015 estimate) to $10,859.13 (2018 estimate). Due to improved data analytics, GSA was able to ascertain more accurate data in regards to: - Number of contractors (respondents) - Number of orders (responses/respondent) - Hourly wages of contractor personnel performing reporting functions. Additionally, due to the implementation of the EDI and VP systems: - The amount of time required by vendors to meet the reporting requirements for GSA Form 1678 has been all but eliminated - The Government’s time spent reviewing the information have been significantly reduced.

Annual Cost to Federal Government: $10,859
