The successful development of software ergonomics standards requires a range of technical, organizational, and consensus-building issues to be addressed. These issues include: inhibition of technical innovation, user/task/system variability, rapidly evolving technology, incorporating standards in software development processes, and other issues. Strategies for addressing these issues and product design and development implications are discussed.
