The Bearing Industry Code of Conduct is a Non-Profit Organisation having endorsements from Public Utilities, Chamber of Commerce and Related Institutions.

The BICC reports on events, matters & news items about the Global Bearing Industry but does not endorse Commercial Statements.

Bearing Industry Code of Conduct Statement

Today’s International Business requirements have vastly changed demanding guidelines, controls and regulations to improve standards. Almost all Global Industries have incorporated a Code of Conduct to satisfy good practice, excellence & Corporate Governance for Manufacturers & Distributors. The Bearing Industry is no different to any other International Business and needs certain clarifications & controls to avoid improper behavior and give to the public domain the assurances required by the formation & the management of an Global Bearing Industry Code of Conduct.

Many Bearing Manufacturers & Distributors are unaware of the importance to Safety & Consumer Legal requirements especially when Ball & Roller Bearings can be readily sought from country to country without guidelines to that of an acceptable Global Code ensuring maximum business ethics are achieved.

There are some Stock Exchange listed Bearing Businesses that comply to an Internal “Code” of practice or business procedures for reporting & accountability to shareholders. This does not address or comply with any Global Industry Code of Conduct nor does it give assurances that their partners & traders are adopting Industry standards.

This document will Endeavour to give such guidelines especially to the general public the necessary protection for Safety & Consumer issues throughout the various stages of Manufacturing, Distributing and the general use by the Ball & Roller Bearing Industry.

Overview

The objective of the Airframe Control Bearing Group (ACBG)is to provide industry experience and state of the art technology for airframe bearings, and issue as appropriate, published documents known as SAE Aerospace Standards. The focus of the Committees is present and future aircraft airframe control systems, bearings, and associated components.

The ACBG shall be responsible for the preparation, development, maintenance and promotion of all relevant specifications, standards, and requirements for airframe bearings, control system components, and associated hardware used in the design and construction of aerospace mechanical systems and subsystems. The ACBG shall also coordinate with other organizations for lubricants, control cables, and locking devices and shall utilize and promote the use of specifications published by those organizations. The ACBG shall function as a forum for technology transfer as it affects the Airframe bearing and control systems industry and for the enhancement of distribution channels.
