SMALL BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION
Small Business Size Standards:
Waiver of the Nonmanufacturer Rule
U.S. Small Business
Administration.
AGENCY:
Notice of Waiver to the
Nonmanufacturer Rule for Woven and
Knit impregnated with Flat Dipped
Rubber/Plastic Gloves.
ACTION:
The U. S. Small Business
Administration (SBA) is granting a class
waiver of the Nonmanufacturer Rule for
Woven and Knit impregnated with Flat
Dipped Rubber/Plastic Gloves, under
North American Industry Classification
System (NAICS) code 315992 (Glove
and Mitten Manufacturing). The basis
for the waiver is that no small business
manufacturers are supplying this class
of products to the Federal government.
The effect of this waiver will be to allow
otherwise qualified small businesses to
supply the products of any
manufacturer on a Federal contract set
aside for small businesses, ServiceDisabled Veteran-Owned (SDVO) small
businesses, Participants in SBA’s 8(a)
Business Development (BD) Program, or
Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB)
concerns.
SUMMARY:
This waiver is effective
November 22, 2010.

Amy Garcia, Procurement Analyst, by

set aside for small businesses, SDVO
small businesses, Participants in the
SBA’s 8(a) BD Program, or WOSBs,
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),
127.505. 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(c). The SBA defines
‘‘class of products’’ based on the Office
of Management and Budget’s NAICS.
The SBA received a request on August
13, 2010, to waive the Nonmanufacturer
Rule for Woven and Knit impregnated
with Flat Dipped Rubber/Plastic Gloves
under PSC 9999 (Miscellaneous), NAICS
code 315992 (Glove and Mitten
Manufacturing).
On August 27, 2010, SBA published
in the Federal Register a notice of intent
to waive the Nonmanufacturer Rule for
the above listed item. 75 FR 38156
(2010). 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. In
addition, SBA conducted market
research using the Dynamic Small
Business Search database and no small
business manufacturers that participate
in the Federal market were identified.
Lastly, on September 16, 2010, SBA
posted a Sources Sought notice on
https://www.fbo.gov that it was soliciting
comments and sources of small business
manufacturers of this class of products.
One comment was received from a small
business distributor, not a small
business manufacturer of this type of
product. Thus, SBA has determined that
there are no small business
manufacturers of this classes of product,
and is therefore granting the waiver of
the Nonmanufacturer Rule for Woven
and Knit impregnated with Flat Dipped
Rubber/Plastic Gloves, under NAICS
