Small Business Size Standards; Waiver of the Nonmanufacturer Rule

Resumo

This document advises the public that the Small Business Administration (SBA) is establishing a waiver of the Nonmanufacturer Rule for Power Circuit Breakers, Current and Potential Transformers, Autotransformer, and Surge Arresters. The basis for a waiver is that no small business manufacturers are available to participate in the Federal market for these products. The effect of a waiver will allow otherwise qualified nonmanufacturers to supply the products of any domestic manufacturer on a Federal contract set-aside for small businesses or awarded through the SBA 8(a) Program.
