Customers are primarily enterprise infrastructure and construction companies undertaking super high-rise buildings, long-span bridges, airports, Olympic stadiums, power plant cooling towers, high-speed rail beam-making yards, and prefabricated construction projects. Marquee deployments include the 385.5m CBD tower in Egypt's New Capital, Russia's Space Center, the Saudi Arabia Boarding Tower, Guizhou Zhijin Power Plant, the Beijing Winter Olympics Water Cube renovation, and the China Huaneng headquarters in Xiongan New Area.

The underlying technology stack combines rack-and-pinion lifting systems, hydraulic placing systems, CNC rebar processing, and drilling technologies developed and refined over BICM's 60+ year R&D heritage, with digital transformation products adding cloud-based predictive maintenance and an L4 autonomous driving shuttle system. Products hold CE, EAC, ISO9001, ISO14001, and ISO45001 certifications, with SGS conducting factory verification at both Langfang and Dezhou facilities, and CABR/M participates in national standards compilation including BMU use and maintenance manuals.

The business model is enterprise B2B hardware sales of capital equipment via direct sales through a dedicated International Trade Department and channel partners, with quote-based pricing (no public pricing disclosed) and multi-year contract cadences. Products are exported to more than 70 countries, leveraging Belt and Road alignment, recurring exhibition presence (bauma, Big 5, CTT, BICES, BATIMATEC, Canton Fair), and a multi-language website. After-sales service and standards participation extend customer engagement beyond the initial sale.
