Agencies and Commissions January 28, 2015 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) is considering granting a class waiver of the Nonmanufacturer Rule for Scientific Vacuum Pumps. On October 1, 2014, SBA received a request that a class waiver be granted for scientific vacuum pumps under the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code 333911 (Pump and Pumping Equipment Manufacturing), Product Service Code (PSC) 4310 (Compressors and Vacuum Pumps). According to the request, no small business manufacturers supply this class of products to the Federal government. Thus, SBA is seeking information on whether there are small business scientific vacuum pump manufacturers. If granted, the waiver would allow otherwise qualified small businesses to supply the products of any manufacturer on a Federal contract set aside for small businesses, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned (SDVO) small businesses, Women-Owned small businesses (WOSB), Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned small businesses (EDWOSB), or Participants in the SBA's 8(a) Business Development (BD) program.
