CICA is a member of the International Crane Stakeholders Assembly (ICSA), a global forum for sharing knowledge, improving safety, and aligning crane industry standards. Through ICSA, CICA represents Australia and gains valuable international insights to support and advance the local crane industry.

ICSA's Purpose

    • Facilitate information sharing and meaningful dialogue between crane industry stakeholders on safety, technical and regulatory issues of concern to the International crane industry.
    • Provide an environment for, and encourage the creation of, significant networking opportunities between industry stakeholders and promote consensus positions on behalf of the crane industry on issues of common concern, so that ICSA members can make representation to relevant regulatory and standardization bodies.
    • Promote the harmonization of international standards

ICSA Guidance Papers

At CICA, we actively contribute to the development of ICSA (International Crane Stakeholders Assembly) guidance papers, working alongside global industry experts. These papers are informed by international experience and best practices, with CICA playing a key role in shaping their content.
