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 

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 

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).
