SMALL BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION 

Small Business Size Standards: 

Waiver of the Nonmanufacturer Rule 

AGENCY: U.S. Small Business 

Administration. 

ACTION: Notice of intent to waive the 

Nonmanufacturer Rule for Photographic 

Film, Paper, Plate, and Chemical 

Manufacturing. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Small Business 

Administration (SBA) is considering 

granting a waiver of the 

Nonmanufacturer Rule for Photographic 

Film, Paper, Plate, and Chemical 

Manufacturing. The basis for waivers 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 regular dealers to supply the 

products of any domestic manufacturer 

on a Federal contract set aside for small 

businesses, service disabled veteranowned small businesses or SBA’s 8(a) 

Business Development Program. The 

purpose of this notice is to solicit 

comments and potential source 

information from interested parties. 

DATES: Comments and sources must be 

submitted on or before October 7, 2005. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Edith Butler, Program Analyst, by 

telephone at (202) 619–0422; by FAX at 

481–1788; or by e-mail at 

edith.butler@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. This 

requirement is commonly referred to as 

the Nonmanufacturer Rule. 

The SBA regulations imposing 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 in 

the Federal market. 

As implemented in SBA’s regulations 

at 13 CFE 121.1204, 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 is currently processing a 

request to waive the Nonmanufacturer 

Rule for Photographic Film, Paper, 

Plate, and Chemical Manufacturing, 

North American Industry Classification 

System (NAICS) 325992. The public is 

invited to comment or provide source 

information to SBA on the proposed 

waiver of the nonmanufacturer rule for 

this NAICS code. 

Authority: 15 U.S.C. 637(A)(17). 

Dated: September 15, 2005. 

Karen C. Hontz, 

Associate Administrator for Government 

Contracting.
