The paper presents the chronology of ISO standards for management systems, the evolution from quality management systems based on ISO 9001 to innovation management systems based on ISO 56002. The discussion evolves into a summary of the lessons learned from the implementation of such systems. The conclusions highlight a number of opportunities for improvement and suggestions for practical implementation of innovation management systems in universities.
