assessment. To date, the crowning achieve-
ment of the volunteer force has been the
simultaneous development of the ICML
55® Standards and MLE credentia l for
machinery lubrication engineers.
"For t went y years, ICML has been
playing an increasingly impactful role in
standardizing machinery lubrication prac-
tices across industries with industry experts
and volunteers," states ICML Board Member
Yuegang Zhao of KPM Analytics, "especially
after releasing the industry-first lubrication
standard—ICML 55—and MLE certification
in recent years."
e ICML 55 Standards comprise require-
ments and guidelines for effective, certifiable
management of lubricated mechanical assets.
ese standards are strategically aligned to
ISO 55000 and are intended to support an
organization's physical asset management
plans. Part 1 was co-authored by an inter-
national team of 45 technical contributors
and was published in 2019: "ICML 55.1:
Requirements for the Optimized Lubrication
of Mechanical Physical Assets."
ICML developed its management-level
MLE credential in conjunction with ICML
55. e extensive, 24-part body of knowl-
edge targets reliability and asset leaders.
To date, this rigorous, exclusive creden-
tial has been earned by fewer than 100
practitioners worldwide.
