CHAPTER I--SMALL BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION
PART 121--SMALL BUSINESS SIZE REGULATIONS--Table of Contents
Subpart A--Size Eligibility Provisions and Standards
Sec. 121.201 What size standards has SBA identified by Standard Industrial Classification codes?
The size standards described in this section apply to all SBA
programs unless otherwise specified. The size standards themselves are
expressed either in number of employees or annual receipts in millions
of dollars, unless otherwise specified. The number of employees or
annual receipts indicates the maximum allowed for a concern and its
affiliates to be considered small. The following is a listing of size
standards for industries under the SIC System. Size standards are listed
by Division and apply to all industries in that Division except those
specifically listed with separate size standards for a specific two-
digit major group or four-digit industry code. The industry code
applicable to a business that cannot be otherwise classified will be SIC
code 9999, Nonclassifiable Establishments, with a corresponding size
standard of $5.0 million in annual receipts.

Footnotes:
\1\ SIC code 1629--Dredging: To be considered small for purposes of
Government procurement, a firm must perform at least 40 percent of the
volume dredged with its own equipment or equipment owned by another
small dredging concern.
\2\ SIC Division D--Manufacturing: For rebuilding machinery or equipment
on a factory basis, or equivalent, use the SIC code for a newly
manufactured product. Concerns performing major rebuilding or overhaul
activities do not necessarily have to meet the criteria for being a
``manufacturer'' although the activities may be classified under a
manufacturing SIC code. Ordinary repair services or preservation are
not considered rebuilding.
\3\ SIC code 2033: For purposes of Government procurement for food
canning and preserving, the standard of 500 employees excludes
agricultural labor as defined in section 3306(k) of the Internal
Revenue Code, 26 U.S.C. 3306(k).
\4\ SIC code 2911: For purposes of Government procurement, the firm may
not have more than 1,500 employees nor more than 75,000 barrels per
day capacity of petroleum-based inputs, including crude oil or bona
fide feedstocks. Capacity includes owned or leased facilities as well
as facilities under a processing agreement or an arrangement such as
an exchange agreement or a throughput. The total product to be
delivered under the contract must be at least 90 percent refined by
the successful bidder from either crude oil or bona fide feedstocks.
\5\ SIC code 3011: For purposes of Government procurement, a firm is
small for bidding on a contract for pneumatic tires within Census
Classification codes 30111 and 30112, provided that:
(1) The value of tires within Census Classification codes 30111 and
30112 which it manufactured in the United States during the previous
calendar year is more than 50 percent of the value of its total
worldwide manufacture;
(2) The value of pneumatic tires within Census Classification codes
30111 and 30112 comprising its total worldwide manufacture during the
preceding calendar year was less than 5 percent of the value of all
such tires manufactured in the United States during that period; and
(3) the value of the principal product which it manufactured or
otherwise produced, or sold worldwide during the preceding calendar
year is less than 10 percent of the total value of such products
manufactured or otherwise produced or sold in the United States during
that period.
\6\ SIC codes 4724, 6531, 7311, 7312, 7313, 7319, and 8741 (part): As
measured by total revenues, but excluding funds received in trust for
an unaffiliated third party, such as bookings or sales subject to
commissions. The commissions received are included as revenue.
\7\ A financial institution's assets are determined by averaging the
assets reported on its four quarterly financial statements for the
preceding year. Assets for the purposes of this size standard means
the assets defined according to the Federal Financial Institutions
Examination Council 034 call report form.
\8\ SIC code 6515: Leasing of building space to the Federal Government
by Owners: For Government procurement, a size standard of $15.0
million in gross receipts applies to the owners of building space
leased to the Federal Government. The standard does not apply to an
agent.
\9\ SIC codes 7699 and 3728: Contracts for the rebuilding or overhaul of
aircraft ground support equipment on a contract basis are classified
under SIC code 3728.
\10\ SIC code 8731: For research and development contracts requiring the
delivery of a manufactured product, the appropriate size standard is
that of the manufacturing industry.
(1) Research and Development means laboratory or other physical research
and development. It does not include economic, educational,
engineering, operations, systems, or other nonphysical research; or
computer programming, data processing, commercial and/or medical
laboratory testing.
(2) For purposes of the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR)
program only, a different definition has been established by law. See
Sec. 121.701.
(3) Research and development for guided missiles and space vehicles
includes evaluations and simulation, and other services requiring
thorough knowledge of complete missiles and spacecraft.
\11\ Facilities Management, a component of SIC code 8744, includes
establishments, not elsewhere classified, which provide overall
management and the personnel to perform a variety of related support
services in operating a complete facility in or around a specific
building, or within another business or Government establishment.
Facilities management means furnishing three or more personnel supply
services which may include, but are not limited to, secretarial
services, typists, telephone answering, reproduction or mimeograph
service, mailing service, financial or business management, public
relations, conference planning, travel arrangements, word processing,
maintaining files and/or libraries, switchboard operation, writers,
bookkeeping, minor office equipment maintenance and repair, or use of
information systems (not programming).
\12\ SIC code 8744:
(1) If one of the activities of base maintenance, as defined in
paragraph (2) of this footnote, can be identified with a separate
industry and that activity (or industry) accounts for 50 percent or
more of the value of an entire contract, then the proper size standard
is that of the particular industry, and not the base maintenance size
standard.
(2) ``Base Maintenance'' requires the performance of three or more
separate activities in the areas of service or special trade
construction industries. If services are performed, these activities
must each be in a separate SIC code including, but not limited to,
Janitorial and Custodial Service, Fire Prevention Service, Messenger
Service, Commissary Service, Protective Guard Service, and Grounds
Maintenance and Landscaping Service. If the contract requires the use
of special trade contractors (plumbing, painting, plastering,
carpentry, etc.), all such special trade construction activities are
considered a single activity and classified as Base Housing
Maintenance. Since Base Housing Maintenance is only one activity, two
additional activities are required for a contract to be classified as
``Base Maintenance.''
[[Page 207]]
\13\ SIC code 8744: (1) For SBA assistance as a small business concern
in the industry of Environmental Remediation Services, other than for
Government procurement, a concern must be engaged primarily in
furnishing a range of services for the remediation of a contaminated
environment to an acceptable condition including, but not limited to,
preliminary assessment, site inspection, testing, remedial
investigation, feasibility studies, remedial design, containment,
remedial action, removal of contaminated materials, storage of
contaminated materials and security and site closeouts. If one of such
activities accounts for 50 percent or more of a concern's total
revenues, employees, or other related factors, the concern's primary
industry is that of the particular industry and not the Environmental
Remediation Services Industry.
(2) For purposes of classifying a Government procurement as
Environmental Remediation Services, the general purpose of the
procurement must be to restore a contaminated environment and also the
procurement must be composed of activities in three or more separate
industries with separate SIC codes or, in some instances (e.g.,
engineering), smaller sub-components of SIC codes with separate,
distinct size standards. These activities may include, but are not
limited to, separate activities in industries such as: Heavy
Construction; Special Trade Construction; Engineering Services;
Architectural Services; Management Services; Refuse Systems; Sanitary
Services, Not Elsewhere Classified; Local Trucking Without Storage;
Testing Laboratories; and Commercial, Physical and Biological
Research. If any activity in the procurement can be identified with a
separate SIC code, or component of a code with a separate distinct
size standard, and that industry accounts for 50 percent or more of
the value of the entire procurement, then the proper size standard is
the one for that particular industry, and not the Environmental
Remediation Service size standard.
