Small Business Size Standards: Waiver of the Nonmanufacturer Rule

Riepilogo

The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) is granting a class waiver of the Nonmanufacturer Rule for 13 Watt CFLs, 26 Watt CFLs, and Occupancy Sensors Dual Technology. The basis for the waiver is that no small businesses manufacturers are supplying these classes of products to the Federal government. The effect of a waiver would be to allow otherwise qualified small businesses to supply the products of any manufacturer on a Federal contract set aside for small businesses, service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses, or Participants in SBA's 8(a) Business Development (BD) Program.
