Book excerpt: 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 module 1 exam covers only the basics. The exam attempts to test your basic understanding towards supply chain and the various PIM (production and inventory management) concepts. Many people consider module 1 as the easiest module among the five. In module 2, 3 and 4 you will frequently see topics from module 1 (as these modules tend to overlap heavily). It is therefore highly recommended that you read the material for module 1 while preparing for the other modules.
