Profile

Henk de Vries is professor of Standardisation Management at the Department of Technology and Operations Management, Rotterdam School of Management, Erasmus University (RSM). Standardisation management includes management of standardisation within companies and other organisations, management of standardisation projects in which multiple stakeholders cooperate, and management of a national quality infrastructure. The latter includes standardisation and conformity assessment. Professor De Vries studies this in relation to innovation management. He is the author and co-author of more than 400 publications in the field of standardisation. Until recently he was  President of the European Academy for Standardisation EURAS. The International Organization for Standardization ISO rewarded his education about standardisation as best in the world. Earlier in his career, Professor De Vries held a number of different positions at the Netherlands Standardization Institute NEN.
