I am looking for information on the pros and cons of these two sets of standards for an IT group that develops and maintains software, does formal testing, complete infrastructure responsibilities and pretty much everything else on mainframes and PCs. Is one better than the other or is there something else?

My experiences with ISO was that the certification can be bought and not earned as with IEEE. IEEE is internationally recognized and ISO is only national.

the ISO stamps thier brand on IEEE and W3C "recomendations" rather than creating their standards.

I recommend using the body that is specific for the area of technology your business is involved in, then the standards will have a better chance of being by people who understand the technology.
