contents We investigate the orthogonality preserving property for pairs of mappings on inner product $C^*$-modules extending existing results for a single orthogonality-preserving mapping. Guided by the point of view that the $C^*$-valued inner product structure of a Hilbert $C^*$-module is determined essentially by the module structure and by the orthogonality structure, pairs of linear and local orthogonality-preserving mappings are investigated, not a priori bounded. The intuition is that most often $C^*$-linearity and boundedness can be derived from the settings under consideration. In particular, we obtain that if $\mathscr{A}$ is a $C^{*}$-algebra and $T, S:\mathscr{E}\longrightarrow \mathscr{F}$ are two bounded ${\mathscr A}$-linear mappings between full Hilbert $\mathscr{A}$-modules, then $\langle x, y\rangle = 0$ implies $\langle T(x), S(y)\rangle = 0$ for all $x, y\in \mathscr{E}$ if and only if there exists an element $γ$ of the center $Z(M({\mathscr A}))$ of the multiplier algebra $M({\mathscr A})$ of ${\mathscr A}$ such that $\langle T(x), S(y)\rangle = γ\langle x, y\rangle$ for all $x, y\in \mathscr{E}$. In particular, for adjointable operators $S$ we have $T=(S^*)^{-1}$, and any bounded invertible module operator $T$ may appear. Varying the conditions on the mappings $T$ and $S$ we obtain further affirmative results for local operators and for pairs of a bounded and of an unbounded module operator with bounded inverse, among others. Also, unbounded operators with disjoint ranges are considered. The proving techniques give new insights.
