What happens at the Management Level Review (MLR)?
MLRs are conducted 60-40 days prior to the Central Selection Board. Management Levels gather all senior raters with eligibles and have four functions: 1) Quality review all Records of Performance (ROP), Duty Qualification History Briefs (DQHB), and Promotion Recommendation Forms (PRF) of all I/APZ officers in order to identify and discuss with appropriate senior raters those PRFs that appear to contain exaggerated or unrealistic comments or comments that do not appear to support the overall recommendation based on the ROP; 2) To award DP recommendations to those officers whose senior rater had too few eligibles to earn a DP allocation (aggregation); 3) To award carry-over DP allocations; and 4) To award DP allocations to Management Level Students.
