Cold Chain Relevance: SAPICS certifications address the planning and forecasting challenges unique to cold chain operations. The CPIM (Certified in Planning and Inventory Management) qualification covers demand planning for products with limited shelf life, production scheduling for food processing facilities, and inventory optimization that balances stock-out risks against spoilage costs. The CLTD (Certified in Logistics, Transportation and Distribution) certification addresses cold chain-specific distribution challenges including route optimization for time-sensitive deliveries, warehouse layout for temperature-controlled facilities, and transport mode selection for perishables. For cold chain companies, SAPICS-certified staff bring systematic approaches to the complex trade-offs between service levels, product quality, and operational costs that define temperature-controlled supply chains.
