The Association for Supply Chain Management Certified in Planning and Inventory Management credential, in its v9.0 form, establishes that the holder understands end-to-end supply chain planning from strategic demand shaping through tactical materials management and operational execution on the production floor. The credential consolidates the legacy two-part CPIM Part 1 and Part 2 sequence into a single integrated examination. Holders typically work as production planners, master schedulers, materials managers, demand planners, sales-and-operations-planning coordinators, supply chain analysts, and operations managers in manufacturing, distribution, and increasingly in services environments where capacity, lead time, and inventory still govern customer experience.
The exam covers supply chain strategy and the alignment of operations with competitive priorities, including the trade-offs among cost, quality, delivery, flexibility, and sustainability. Demand management content spans qualitative and quantitative forecasting, the bullwhip effect, demand sensing, forecast error metrics such as MAPE, MAD, and tracking signal bias, and the integration of demand plans into sales and operations planning cycles that reconcile commercial intent with supply capability. Master planning addresses aggregate planning, the master production schedule, rough-cut capacity planning, available-to-promise and capable-to-promise logic, and the policies that govern frozen, slushy, and liquid horizons within the planning fence.
Material requirements planning is covered in depth: bill of materials structures including modular and planning BOMs, lot-sizing rules from fixed-order-quantity through least-total-cost, lead time elements, safety stock versus safety lead time, pegging and exception messaging, and the interaction between MRP and capacity requirements planning. Procurement topics include strategic sourcing, supplier segmentation, contract types, total cost of ownership, and the procure-to-pay cycle. Inventory management content covers independent versus dependent demand, ABC and XYZ analysis, cycle counting strategies, economic order quantity and reorder point calculations, vendor-managed and consignment inventory, and the inventory record accuracy disciplines that make any plan executable.
Production activity control addresses input-output control, dispatching rules, theory of constraints and drum-buffer-rope scheduling, lean and just-in-time principles, pull systems and kanban sizing, quality management foundations including statistical process control and Six Sigma DMAIC, and the digital supply chain technologies reshaping execution: IoT-enabled tracking, machine learning forecasting, supply chain control towers, digital twins, and blockchain-anchored provenance for regulated materials.
The volume includes 120 practice questions calibrated to the v9.0 exam content manual, with detailed answer explanations that work through calculations, clarify terminology, and explain why distractors are wrong. Items emphasize the integrative scenarios that distinguish the live exam from rote definition recall.
Intended readers include candidates with two or more years of supply chain experience, legacy CPIM Part 1 and Part 2 holders updating to the consolidated v9.0 format, and operations professionals preparing for a step into planning leadership.
Format: 8.5x11 perfect-bound, large-format study layout with worked example boxes, formula sheets, and domain headers that map directly to the ASCM v9.0 exam content manual.
Drafted with frontier large language models and adversarially verified for technical accuracy. This is an independent publication and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by ASCM; all trademarks are property of their respective owners.
