Annual leadership review of programme effectiveness with target setting and roadmap
Management Review and Continuous Improvement is the apex governance mechanism — the structured annual review where site leadership and corporate executives assess the overall PSM programme effectiveness, set targets, allocate resources, and establish the continuous-improvement roadmap. The element maps to CCPS RBPS Element 20, ISO 45001 Cl.9.3, and the leadership-engagement principles in API RP 754.

Management Review is where leadership either drives or abandons the process safety programme. Sites where management review is rigorous, multi-year, and tied to capital allocation sustain mature programmes; sites where it's annual rubber-stamping see programmes drift. The DuPont Bradley Curve identifies management-review quality as a primary differentiator between Reactive and Generative organisations.
Management Review closes the management-system loop. It receives input from every other RBPS element — culture (Element 1), audits (Element 19), metrics (Element 18), incidents (Element 17) — and produces the strategic direction that cascades back through resource allocation, target setting, and roadmap development. Element 20 is also the integration point with corporate governance, ESG reporting, and board oversight.
