Hey, I sympathise, senior management want a digestable form. You have to give it. The first chapter of the Project Manager’s Portable Handbook (Cleland & Ireland - published by McGraw Hill) gives some bullet points you could use including "Benefits for senior managers".

Dear Peter
Golden Rules a Project Manager should be aware of:
1)Project Start Up
2)Communication
3)Information Management
4)Health & Safety Management
5)Quality Management
6)Design Management
7)Procurement
8)Planning & Progress Control
9)Risk Management
10)Value Management/Value Engineering
11)Construction & Site Control
12)Project Close out
Each section is covered by a composition which formulates as a procedures manual.
The Project Manger does not have to memorise each section word for word, however, he needs an appreciation of the importance of each section.
Best Wishes
