Governance
This organization files the short tax form, which does not ask about boards, policies or audits. That is normal for a small charity and is not a mark against it.

- BAKERY EQUIPMENT ASSESSMENT GROUP, FORMERLY KNOWN AS BAKING INDUSTRY SANITATION STANDARDS COMMITTEE WAS FORMED IN 1949 TO DEVELOP AND PUBLISH VOLUNTARY STANDARDS FOR THE DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF BAKERY EQUIPMENT WHICH TODAY ARE RECOGNIZED AS THE DEFINITIVE SANITATION STANDARDS FOR EQUIPMENT USED IN THE BAKING INDUSTRY. IN 2025, THERE WERE 27 AUTHORIZED MANUFACTURERS WHO QUALIFIED FOR CERTIFICATION. IN ADDITION, THE BEAG OFFICE OF CERTIFICATION WAS ESTABLISHED IN 1966 TO PROMOTE GREATER RECOGNITION AND USE OF EQUIPMENT CONFORMING TO THE CRITERIA OF BEAG STANDARDS. THE OFFICE OF CERTIFICATION OFFERS TWO EQUIPMENT CERTIFICATION PROGRAMS TO MANUFACTURERS WHO CAN WARRANT THAT EQUIPMENT CONFORMS TO THE CRITERIA OF THE ANSI/ASB/Z50.2-2013 SANITATION STANDARD FOR THE DESIGN OF BAKERY EQUIPMENT CAN DISPLAY THE BEAG CERTIFIED SYMBOL ON THE EQUIPMENT. THIRD-PARTY VERIFICATION - MANUFACTURERS ALREADY REGISTERED AND CERTIFIED WITH BEAG WHO SUCCESSFULLY PASS A THIRD-PARTY INSPECTION BY A BEAG-APPOINTED INDEPENDENT TESTING AGENCY CAN DISPLAY THE BEAG VERIFIED SYMBOL. THE CERTIFIED EQUIPMENT EVALUATOR TRAINING COURSE WAS CREATED IN 2024. THERE WERE 18 INDIVIDUALS WHO SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETED THE TRAINING COURSE AND ARE NOW CERTIFIED.
