Icml also presented the gill award and the battle award to two companies recognizing them for their inovation in the areas of oil analysis and machinery lubrication. These icml awards have become a synonym of world-class oil analysis and machinery lubrication programs, honoring prime examples in the industry that have received recognition for their pioneering efforts. This expands further the reach of industry mentors available via icml and it's benchmarking of the lubrication and analysis industry on world class programs. Icml continues to implement the recertification process with candidates.
