SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 8(a)(17) of the Small Business Act
(Act), 15 U.S.C. 637(a)(17), and SBA's implementing regulations provide
that recipients of Federal contracts set aside for small businesses,
service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses, or participants in the
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. 13 CFR 121.406(b),
125.15(c). 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.
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. 13 CFR
121.1202(1). The SBA defines ``class of products'' based on a six digit
coding system. The coding system is the Office of Management and Budget
North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). In addition, SBA
uses product service codes to identify particular products within the
NAICS code to which a waiver would apply.
The SBA is currently processing a request to waive the
Nonmanufacturer Rule for Conductor and Cable (Aluminum), North American
Industry Classification System (NAICS) code 331319, product service
code (PSC) 6145; Conductor and Control Cable (Copper), NAICS code
331422, PSC 6145; Truck Trailer Manufacturing, NAICS code 336212, PSC
2330; All Terrain Vehicles (ATV's), wheeled or tracked, Manufacturing;
Snowmobiles and parts; Off-road all terrain vehicles (ATV's) and
wheeled or tracked Manufacturing, NAICS code 336999, PSC 2330; and
Noncurrent-Carrying Wiring Device Manufacturing, i.e., dead end tees
and connectors, guy strain and link assemblies, bolts, washers,
turnbuckles, twisted clips, steel angle assemblies, yoke plates,
compression T connectors, press dies, anchor shackles, & clevis ball
and & clevis sockets, yoke plates and grounding clamps, NAICS code
335932, PSC 5975.
The public is invited to comment or provide source information to
SBA on the proposed waivers of the Nonmanufacturer Rule for these
classes of products within 15 days after date of publication in the
Federal Register.
