Description
A supply chain is a network of retailers, distributors, transporters, storage facilities and suppliers that participate in the sale, delivery and production of a particular product. The concept of supply chain often involves backward integration - acquiring ownership of one's supply chain (in the hope of reducing supplier power and thus reducing input costs). The four major functional components are: demand planning manufacturing planning and scheduling supply planning transportation planning The Certified Supply Chain Professional (CSCP) certification is essential for professionals involved in the areas of supplier and customer relations, international trade, the use of information technology to enable the supply chain, and physical logistics. Candidates must pass a 3-module exam in order to earn the CSCP designation. The modules are: Module 1 - Supply Chain Design Module 2 - Supply Chain Planning and Execution Module 3 - Supply Chain Improvements and Best Practices There are overlapping knowledge, and it is suggested that you study these modules together. Officially, CPIM focuses primarily on manufacturing and provides an in-depth view of materials management, master scheduling, production planning, forecasting, and quality improvement within an organization, while CSCP takes a broader view to encompass all steps throughout the supply chain. In reality, the CSCP exam and the CPIM BSCM exam share a lot of common topics on SCM. This ExamFOCUS Study Notes builds a solid focus while revisiting key examination topics relevant to the CSCP exam (and also to the first CPIM module - BSCM). It helps in straight-forward fundamental knowledge establishment. The real CSCP exam questions do not appear to be as straight forward though. In fact, many questions are presented to do nothing other than to get you totally confused... Just bear in mind, you will need to do a lot of logical thinking to figure out the best possible answers, and you must be able to link multiple concepts together....
