I was hoping someone would be able to answer this more authoritatively than I can, but if there have been any replies, I missed them. I am aware that the US FDA imposes a BCI type requirement like MIL-STD-461 CS114. Of course that is for medical equipment. RTCA/DO-160 imposes a very similar BCI requirement on commercial avionics. SAE ARP 1972 included BCI testing but was just a recommended practice, I don't know of any entity that actually levied it as a requirement. The automotive world in this country at least has adopted BCI techniques as well. There were in-house specs (I recall seeing a GM spec) and a better version has been adopted as an SAE J-type requirement industry-wide. That's about all I can think of off the top of my head.
