Question 5

What is the SCOR-P endorsement and how is it different from APICS certifications like CPIM or CSCP?

Accepted Answer

The SCOR-P (Supply Chain Operations Reference Professional) is an endorsement, not a full certification. Unlike CPIM, CSCP, CLTD, and CTSC which are full APICS certifications requiring maintenance, the SCOR-P endorsement validates your knowledge of the SCOR model framework for supply chain performance management. It does not require ongoing maintenance or recertification, and it does not award post-nominal acronyms in the same manner as the major APICS certifications.

Question 6

What is the passing score for the SCOR-P exam?

Accepted Answer

The SCOR-P exam uses a scaled scoring model with scores ranging from 200 to 350. A score of 300 or higher is required to pass. Any score of 299 or below is considered a failing score. The scaled scoring ensures equivalency across multiple exam formats.

Question 7

How much does the SCOR-P exam cost and do I need to take training first?

Accepted Answer

The SCOR-P exam fee is included with the purchase of the SCOR-P training course. Training costs are approximately $3,730 for APICS members and $4,640 for non-members. While attending the training sessions is not strictly a prerequisite to sit the exam, you must purchase the SCOR course to receive an Authorization to Test (ATT). The retake exam fee is $350.

Question 8

What topics are covered on the SCOR-P exam?

Accepted Answer

The SCOR-P exam is divided into two parts. Part 1 (40% of the exam) covers the SCOR Model including Key Concepts, Processes (Plan, Source, Make, Deliver, Return, Enable), Performance Metrics, Best Practices, and People/Skills. Part 2 (60% of the exam) covers SCOR Project methodology including the five phases of a SCOR improvement program: Pre-SCOR Steps, Set the Scope, Configure the Supply Chain, Optimize Projects, and Ready for Implementation.

Question 9

What is the difference between SCOR-P and SCOR-DS?

Accepted Answer

SCOR-P (SCOR Professional) is the traditional endorsement based on the SCOR v12.0 framework with six processes: Plan, Source, Make, Deliver, Return, and Enable. SCOR-DS (SCOR Digital Standard) is the newer modernized version that shifts from a linear supply chain model to a synchronous supply network model, with seven processes: Orchestrate, Plan, Order, Source, Transform, Fulfill, and Return. SCOR-DS incorporates updated sustainability standards and a digital body of knowledge.

Question 10

How long is the SCOR-P exam and how many questions does it have?

Accepted Answer

The SCOR-P exam consists of 60 multiple-choice questions and you have 2 hours (120 minutes) to complete it. The exam is administered via computer-based testing at Pearson VUE test centers.

Question 11

Do I need to maintain or renew my SCOR-P endorsement?

Accepted Answer

No, the SCOR-P endorsement does not require maintenance or recertification. Once you earn the endorsement, it remains valid. This is different from APICS full certifications like CPIM, CSCP, CLTD, and CTSC, which require earning 75 professional development points within each 5-year cycle to maintain the designation.

Question 12

What math calculations appear on the SCOR-P exam?

Accepted Answer

The SCOR-P exam includes questions that require calculating supply chain financial metrics. Key calculations include Cash-to-Cash Cycle Time (Days Sales Outstanding + Inventory Days of Supply - Days Payable Outstanding), Inventory Days of Supply, Return on Supply Chain Fixed Assets, and related performance metrics. You should be comfortable working with financial data tables and performing these calculations under exam conditions.

Question 13

What is the SCOR Racetrack methodology?

Accepted Answer

The SCOR Racetrack is a structured methodology for organizing a SCOR improvement program. It consists of five phases: Pre-SCOR (organizational preparation), Set the Scope (define supply chain boundaries and charter), Configure the Supply Chain (establish metrics, benchmark, and analyze gaps), Optimize Projects (create and prioritize improvement project portfolio), and Ready for Implementation (kick-off, develop Level-4 processes, test, pilot, and roll out changes). This methodology represents…

Question 14

Who should take the SCOR-P exam?

Accepted Answer

The SCOR-P endorsement is ideal for supply chain professionals seeking to understand how to apply the SCOR model, interpret SCOR metrics, and organize SCOR improvement projects.
