What is the NMR?
The Non-Manufacturer rule allows a small business to offer a product that it did not manufacturer under a small business set-aside if SBA has offered a waiver. The NMR is an exception to the standard requirement that the contractor must perform at least 50 percent of the cost of manufacturing products (not including the cost of material) on a supply contract. In other words, it allows a contractor that is not the manufacturer to supply products that come from a small business manufacturer located in the United States.
