Small Business Size Standards: Waiver of the Nonmanufacturer Rule

Riepilogo

The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) is considering granting a waiver of the Nonmanufacturer Rule for Improved Outer Tactical Vests. According to a request, no small business manufacturers supply these products to the Federal government. If granted, the waiver would allow an otherwise qualified nonmanufacturer 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 the SBA's 8(a) Business Development (BD) Program.
