History:
The BGA was formed in 1986 from the earlier British Gear Manufacturers'

both manufacturers and users of gears, gearboxes and transmission elements
and providing a service for the whole mechanical power transmission industry.
By mid 1989, the BGA had appointed a full-time Chief Executive and staff
and opened its headquarters at the Engineering Employers Federation in Birmingham.
In 1993 the headquarters moved to its present offices in Burton on Trent.
In response to increasing technical co-ordination commitments relating to
technology transfer, best practice activities and an expanding ISO role,
the BGA appointed a full-time Technical Executive in 1998.
