To answer your first question, if you want to get an inventory from a powered on non-vPro system, assuming it's a Windows based machine I would recommend researching WMI.
If you want to use the flash memory in vPro (known as the third party data store), you'll be responsible for reading and writing the data into the flash memory.  In the SDK, look in the Docs folder at the storage design guide for more information on this.  For source code examples, you can look in either the Windows\Intel_AMT\Samples\Soap\Storage or Windows\Intel_AMT\Samples\WS-Management\Storage folders.
For sample source on hardware inventory in vPro (specifically hardware inventory), look at the code in Windows\Intel_AMT\Samples\WS-Management\AssetDisplay\ or Windows\Intel_AMT\Samples\Soap\AssetDisplay in the 5.0 SDK.
