Abstract: This chapter provides an overview of the process carried out at the Instituto Nacional de Tecnologìa Industrial — INTI — in order to implement an Innovation Management System (IMS) in a public R&D Institute. Implementing an IMS aligned with ISO 56002 was aimed to reinforce the role INTI plays to promote innovation through the industrial network of Argentina. The authors explain how the process was deployed and why the work was done in two tracks simultaneously: one addressing awareness and training, for managers and technical staff, and another track addressing the deployment of the strategic components of the IMS by top management. Three elements are highlighted and explained in detail showing the important role they played in the IMS implementation and how they were addressed, namely the innovation process itself, collaboration awareness, and project portfolio balance. The certification of INTI’s IMS under the Argentinean standard IRAM 50501:2016, in October 2019, positioned INTI as a pioneer in the innovation management field, it being the first public organisation in Argentina with a certified IMS.
