Small Business Size Standards: Waiver of the Nonmanufacturer Rule

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, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned (SDVO) small businesses, Participants in SBA's 8(a) Business Development (BD) Program, or Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) concerns.
