SMALL BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION
Small Business Size Standards:
Waiver of the Nonmanufacturer Rule
AGENCY: U.S. Small Business
Administration.
ACTION: Notice of Waiver of the
Nonmanufacturer Rule for All Other
Miscellaneous Electrical Equipment and
Component Manufacturing product
number 6250.
SUMMARY: The U.S. Small Business
Administration (SBA) is granting a
waiver of the Nonmanufacturer Rule for
All Other Miscellaneous Electrical
Equipment and Component
Manufacturing (Electric Lamp Starters
and Lamp Holders, etc.).
The basis for waiver is that no small
business manufacturers are supplying
this class of product to the Federal
government. The effect of a waiver
would be to allow otherwise qualified
regular dealers to supply the products of
any domestic manufacturer on a Federal
contract set aside for small businesses;
service-disabled veteran-owned small
businesses or SBA’s 8(a) Business
Development Program.
DATES: This waiver is effective February
12, 2008.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Pamela M. McClam, Program Analyst,
by telephone at (202) 205–7408; by Fax
at (202) 481–4783; or by e-mail at
Pamela.McClam@sba.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section
8(a)(17) of the Small Business Act, (Act)
15 U.S.C. 637(a)(17), requires that
recipients of Federal contracts set aside
for small businesses, service-disabled
veteran-owned small businesses, or
SBA’s 8(a) Business Development
Program provide the product of a small
business manufacturer or processor, if
the recipient is other than the actual
manufacturer or processor of the
product. This requirement is commonly
referred to as the Nonmanufacturer
Rule. The SBA regulations imposing
mstockstill on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES
this requirement are found at 13 CFR
121.406(b). Section 8(a)(17)(b)(iv) of the
Act authorizes SBA to waive the
Nonmanufacturer Rule for any ‘‘class of
products’’ for which there are no small
business manufacturers or processors
VerDate Aug<31>2005 17:56 Jan 25, 2008 Jkt 214001
available to participate in the Federal
market.
As implemented in SBA’s regulations
at 13 CFR 121.1202(c), in order to be
considered available to participate in
the Federal market for a class of
products, a small business manufacturer
must have submitted a proposal for a
contract solicitation or received a
contract from the Federal government
within the last 24 months. The SBA
defines ‘‘class of products’’ based on six
digit coding systems. The first coding
system is the Office of Management and
Budget North American Industry
Classification System (NAICS). The
second is the Product and Service Code
required as a data entry field by the
Federal Procurement Data System.
The SBA received a request on
December 13, 2007, to waive the
Nonmanufacturer Rule for All Other
Miscellaneous Electrical Equipment and
Component Manufacturing (Electric
Lamp Starters and Lamp Holders, etc.).
In response, on December 28, 2007,
SBA published in the Federal Register
a notice of intent to waive the
Nonmanufacturer Rule for All Other
Miscellaneous Electrical Equipment and
Component Manufacturing (Electric
Lamp Starters and Lamp Holders, etc.).
SBA explained in the notice that it was
soliciting comments and sources of
small business manufacturers of this
class of products. No comments were
received in response to this notice. SBA
has determined that there are no small
business manufacturers of this class of
products, and is therefore granting the
waiver of the Nonmanufacturer Rule for
All Other Miscellaneous Electrical
Equipment and Component
Manufacturing (Electric Lamp Starters
and Lamp Holders, etc.). NAICS code
335999 product number 6250.
Authority: 15 U.S.C. 637(a)(17).
