What's important about 022? With that string , you could just echo 022 and be done. Is it 7+3 characters from the end? Some number+3 from the beginning? Or some number after a (dash or less-than or "ISO" or dash or a string of 9's or.....?)

The importance of 022 or position 17 to 19 in that iso standard are where issues are detected. that would give the error. in the example i gave 022 gives some issues to be resolved. if its grepped or sed or awk the i should echo rather than showing everything.

Then I think your question would be better described as "extract the characters in positions 17-19 from a string" and better yet it would say if the string is piped in as input or is in a variable or is entered by the user or passed as a parameter to your script.

Insist on grep? Try
$ echo "out[000: ]<ISO9090-9999999902299>" | grep -Eo "ISO.13..." | grep -Eo "...$"

You didn't specify how and where that string is stored / comes from. "String" usually refers to a (shell?) variable thatgrepcan't deal with immediately. If it is printed from some program / command, pipe it into thegreps.
