PI Working Groups and Committees

Participation in PI Project/Working Groups

All PI projects, including the development of PROFIBUS and PROFINET specifications and the execution of marketing programs, are carried out by project/working groups. These groups consist of expert volunteers from member companies. Currently, there are over 80 groups with more than 1.000 participants. The groups are organized under committees, whose chairs coordinate tasks at Technical Strategy meetings of the Advisory Board.
 

Participation is open to all PI members. Membership applies to each individual legal entity. Affiliated companies that are separate legal entities require their own PI membership.
 

What must be accepted before joining?
To participate, the authorized signatory of the member company must sign and return the following documents to the PI headquarter (info(at)profibus(dot)com):
 

• TC/WG Guidelines
• Code of Conduct – Corporate Social Responsibility
• Code of Conduct – Antitrust Laws
• IPR Policy
   

PNO members must already sign these documents when joining the organization.

All documents are available in the download area.

Participation starts once the PI headquarter has received the signed documents and confirmed the participation.
