Small Business Size Standards: Waiver of the Nonmanufacturer Rule

摘要

The U. S. Small Business Administration (SBA) conducted a periodic review of approved class waivers from the Nonmanufacturer Rule for products in effect as of March 17, 2009. The purpose of the notice was to determine if there were any small business manufacturers or processors for the products listed on the list of approved class waivers. The basis for a waiver is that no small business 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.
