Integrity Management System (IMS)
An Integrity Management System is the documented, auditable programme an operator runs to identify pipeline threats, assess and prioritise risk, plan and execute inspection and mitigation, and record the outcomes - the organisational structure that standards like ASME B31.8S and frameworks like API 580/581 sit inside. Indian regulatory guidance, including PNGRB's pipeline safety requirements, uses "Integrity Management System" as the formal term for this programme, alongside related requirements such as HAZOP studies, Quantitative Risk Assessment (QRA), and Emergency Response Plans.
