According to APICS, the CSCP program takes a broad view of the field, extending beyond internal operations to encompass all the steps throughout the supply chain.
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 4-hour exam in order to earn the CSCP designation. The major topics covered included:
The CSCP exam has a lot of questions that ask for your "best decisions" (i.e. how you will tackle a situation in a live 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. There are also plenty of questions on concepts and theories. These are the questions quite closely related to the published objectives of the official BOK. They mostly ask for the correct definitions of terms. Our CSCP Study Guide goes the expert-advice way. Instead of just giving you the hard facts, we also give you information that covers the best practices. With these information, you will always be able to make the most appropriate expert judgment in the exams. All of our study guides come with the life time free update benefit so you never have to worry about changes in syllabus :)

SAMPLE TEXT on our introduction to SCM Shorts for supply chain management, SCM refers to the
oversight of materials, information, and finances as they move
in a process from supplier to manufacturer to wholesaler to
retailer to consumer. **************************
SAMPLE TEXT on Kanban
Brian Willcox in his article "KANBAN'S - SIMPLICITY AT IT'S
BEST" describes Kanban as an instrument that is used as a
requisition for material and labor and is a works order
authorization, that the Kanban system is a production control
system (for regularly used components) which resembles a two-bin
system. For such a system to work, a supply with a consistent
and short lead time as well as a constant and not variable
demand is needed. Brian further classifies the three types of
Kanbans in common use: o single card Kanban - often not a card but a container, it
is a very effective way of scheduling a producing work centre
that feeds an assembly line. o double card Kanban - the "move" card is used to authorize
the movement of material from the supplier to the using company,
while the "production" card is used by the supplying company to
launch another batch of work into his manufacturing facility
when he returns with an empty container from the customer.
************************** SAMPLE TEXT on E-Procurement E-procurement markets (a.k.a. Net Marketplaces) are horizontal marketplaces in which long-term contractual purchasing agreements are used to buy indirect goods. They are independently owned, that they are many-to-many markets, and that they use fixed price catalogs. The role of the e-procurement service companies are simply intermediaries for connecting hundreds of online suppliers offering millions of goods to business firms who subscribe to the market. Even though they are mediated by an independent third party, bias may exist in favor of the buyer as there are way too many catalogs of competing suppliers and competing e-distributors. Anticompetitive possibilities inherent in the marketplaces also exist - they may provide some firms with a platform to collude on pricing, market sharing, and market access.
