Amalgamation of Mass Customization and Agile Manufacturing Concepts in an Indian Manufacturing Organization
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
This project reports a research work which was pursued with the purpose of indicating the need of amalgamating mass customization(MC) and agile manufacturing(AM) principles for achieving competitiveness in organizations .The research findings and observations on AM and MC were used to design a model named as agile customization programme (ACP). The implementation study of ACP was conducted in an electronics switches manufacturing company situated in India. The practical implications of ACP were studied by gathering feedback from the executives of company. The details of these works are briefly presented in this paper. Further, the practical implications were used to propose a roadmap. The future researchers may adopts this roadmap and implement ACP in various types and sizes of companies. The performance of ACP in those companies shall be measured using AM metrics such as responsiveness, time compression, quality improvement and profitability.
