Acquiring a GSA Contract does require some administrative paper-trailing. However, it is usually not an overwhelming change for a business. Since IFF fees are required (0.75% of GSA revenue), your company must keep track of their federal contracts and make sure this IFF fee is paid quarterly.

Most accounting software can handle the small administrative changes. However, this is where a small measure of discipline and planning can go a long way. I have seen companies that have a system in place, and the quarterly paperwork is simple and even automated. On the other hand, I have seen companies with a GSA Contract that scramble at the last minute to gather all of the information, and they make it very difficult on themselves.
