ABSTRACT:
With consumer interests constantly changing and industry competition increasing, mass production systems often do not align an organization with its customers. Adopting mass customization is increasing as a method for coping with these changes. However, in order to adopt mass customization, business functions must change.

Customization shifts manufacturing processes from a product to a customer centric approach. The business drivers for adoption are geared towards technology, supply chain transformation and organizational restructuring. This paper explores industry migrations to mass customization and the realized benefits, including:

  • Technological advancement
  • Flexible manufacturing system adoptions
