SAE INTERNATIONAL CEO DAVID SCHUTT TALKS STANDARDS IN INTERVIEW WITH
CHINESE MAGAZINE
Earlier this year, China Strategic Emerging Industry (CSEI), a
national Chinese economic development magazine, featured an
interview with SAE International Chief Executive Officer David
Schutt.
The interview largely focused on the September 2014 agreement
between SAE and the China Aero-Polytechnology Establishment
(CAPE) that provided eight major-scale Chinese enterprises with
access to SAE International's active aerospace technical standards.
"An important part of the cooperation with CAPE is standards

development," Schutt told the magazine. "For instance, we will
provide our SAE standards, and they will translate them into
Chinese, which can be directly used by Chinese engineers."
"More importantly, we need to get Chinese engineers involved
in the process of standards development," he continued. "In the
process of developing standards, Chinese engineers can learn and
grow together through exchanges with engineers from other parts
of the world. Chinese engineers participating in SAE standards
development can help China's aerospace industry access more
technologies and further open up the international market."
