The concept “Mass Customization” first appeared as a term in Stan Davis’ (1987) book Future Perfect. What Davis foresaw was a time when notions of ‘mass production’ and ‘mass markets’ had ended, and where every customer could have goods and services tailored to their individual needs and wishes. In effect, each consumer would represent a market size of one.
Mass Customization
Mass customization, in marketing, manufacturing, call centers and management, is the use of flexible computer-aided manufacturing systems to produce custom output. Those systems combine the low unit costs of mass production processes with the flexibility of individual customization.
Mass Customization
The process of delivering wide-market goods and services that are modified to satisfy a specific customer need. Mass customization is a marketing and manufacturing technique that combines the flexibility and personalization of "custom-made" with the low unit costs associated with mass production. Many applications of mass customization include software-based product configurations that allow end-users to add and/or change certain functionalities of a core product. Sometimes called "made to order" or "built to order."
"Mass Customization is a process by which firms apply technology and management methods to provide product variety and customization through flexibility and quick responsiveness."
Davis, 1987; B.J. Pine II, 1993
"Mass Customization is the ability to provide products tailored to individual customer needs on a large scale at, or close to, mass production efficiency using flexible processes."
Da Silveira. Borenstein, & foliate, 2001; Hart, 1995; Heiskala, etc all.,2005; B.J. Pine II, 1993.
"Mass Customization can be understood as a means to achieve a competitive advantage for service organizations."
- Maarten ter Harmsel
Mass Customization
B. Joseph Pine II's 1992 book "Mass Customization: The New Frontier In Business Competition" describes four types of mass customization:
1. Collaborative Customization2. Adaptive Customization3. Transparent Customization4. Cosmetic Customization

Mass Customization
Each type realizes that customers are heterogeneous and want different combinations of product features and benefits

Companies work in partnership with individual customers to develop precise product offerings to best suit each customer's needs.

● Co-creation● Dialogue with customers
Adaptive Customization

For businesses whose customers want the product/service to perform in different ways of different occasions [contexts]
Transparent Customization
Companies provide unique products to individual customers without overtly stating the products are customized.
● Customers needs are predictable or deducible
● Cutomized, but unknown to customers
Cosmetic customization
Cosmetic Customization - where companies produce standardized products but market the products in different ways to various customers.
● Standard product presented differently for different customers
● Personalized presentation

The Paradox of Choice
Personalization
Personalization, also known as customization, consists of tailoring a service or a product to accommodate specific individuals, as opposed to general groups. A wide variety of organizations use personalization to improve customer satisfaction, as well as for advertising. Personalization is a key element in social media and recommender systems.
