CPIM Part 2A - Module 2: Master Planning Of Resources (MPR)

BASICS OF SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT (BSCM)

In this module, participants will explore and apply the principles of demand management, sales, and operations planning, master scheduling, and distribution planning, and identify conditions that require action. This module evaluates knowledge of both supply and demand planning for mid-to-long-term independent demands.

WHY?

The Master Planning of Resources module is one of the core competencies modules of the CPIM program. The module encompasses concepts for transforming sales, marketing, and business requirements into a feasible and economic operations plan in various business environments. It also addresses concepts and methodologies for managing projected and actual demands from external customers, internal customers and distribution networks. Finally, the module presents methods for integrating sales and operations plans, demand forecasts, and customer demand into a specific master schedule.

OBJECTIVE

The MPR module is designed to provide a detailed overview of inventory planning in the manufacturing and distribution environments. Candidates will explore creating and managing sales and operations planning (S&OP); developing and applying demand management and forecasting concepts and techniques; planning a distribution network and performing multichannel distribution functions; developing master schedules that are compatible with business strategies, objectives, and resource constraints; and evaluating performance at all levels of master planning.
