Small Business Size Standards: Waiver of the Nonmanufacturer Rule

Краткое содержание

The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) is considering granting a class waiver of the Nonmanufacturer Rule for Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry Systems (CS-MS), High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Systems, Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) Systems, and, Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) Systems under Product Service Code (PSC) 6640 (Laboratory Equipment and Supplies), under the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing). According to the request, no small business manufacturers supply these classes of products to the Federal Government. Thus, SBA is seeking information on whether there are small business manufacturers of these items. If granted, the waiver would allow otherwise qualified small businesses to supply the product of any manufacturer on a Federal contract set aside for small businesses, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned (SDVO) small businesses or Participants in the SBA's 8(a) Business Development (BD) program.
