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 Forklifts 

Manufacturing. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Small Business 

Administration (SBA) is considering 

granting a waiver of the 

Nonmanufacturer Rule for Forklifts 

Manufacturing. The basis of 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 to 

provide the products of small business 

manufacturers or processors on such 

contracts. 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 November 14, 

2005. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATI0N CONTACT: 

Edith Butler, Program Analyst, by 

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

(202) 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 of the 

product. 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
