Book excerpt: The Certified in Production and Inventory Management (CPIM) certification is essential for professionals involved in: - Production and inventory management - Operations - Supply chain management - Procurement - Materials management - Purchasing Note: CPIM is about production and inventory management. It is NOT about logistics. Experience in the field of logistics may not contribute much to exam success. Candidates must pass all five exams for the following modules in order to earn the CPIM designation: - Basics of Supply Chain Management BSCM - Master Planning of Resources MPR - Detailed Scheduling and Planning DSP - Execution and Control of Operations ECO - Strategic Management of Resources SMR The CPIM exams have a lot of questions that ask for your "best decisions" (i.e. how you will tackle a situation in a production environment). In fact, of the questions you will encounter in the exams, a significant portion of them requires that you pick the best possible options. These best options are often based on experience and best practices not easily found in the standard exam text books. This ExamFOCUS Study Notes build a solid focus while revisiting key examination topics relevant to the second and third CPIM modules - MPR and DSP. Whether you are just starting to study, cramming at the last minute, or simply looking to refresh, this could prove to be a lifesaver! To succeed in the MPR/DSP exams, you need to get yourself truly familiar with the most important information by going through sufficiently focused revision. This is where we fill the gap - you may think of our product as the unofficial supplement to the regular training class, or you may view it as a standalone module with a focus on building up your exam readiness.
