A method of brake management in a heavy vehicle is provided, and includes, in response to determining that a request for emergency braking is imminent, increasing an air pressure of e.g., a service brake system of the vehicle and decreasing an air pressure of e.g., a parking brake system of the vehicle. The method further includes, in response to actually receiving the request for emergency braking of the vehicle, performing an emergency braking of the vehicle by compounding both the service and parking brake systems, including further increasing the air pressure of the service brake system and further decreasing the air pressure of the parking brake system. A corresponding brake system controller, brake system, heavy vehicle, computer program and computer program product are also provided.
