MGMT 202 Lecture Notes - Lecture 5: Mass Customization
Process of creating or improving a product or
service
Consumer Panel
A group of people who offer opinions about a product or service
Pure Research
Done without a specific product in mind
Applied Research
Research that studies existing product problems or possible design improvements for current products
Manufacturing
Form of production in which raw and semi-finished
materials are processed, assembled, or converted into finished products
Mass Production
An assembly process that produces a large number of identical products
Continuous Processing
Raw materials constantly move through specially designed equipment that changes their form to make
them more usable for consumption or further manufacturing
Repetitive Production
The same thing is done over and over to produce a product
Intermittent Processing
Uses short production runs to make predetermined quantities of different products
Custom Manufacturing

Document Summary
Process of creating or improving a product or service. A group of people who offer opinions about a product or service. Research that studies existing product problems or possible design improvements for current products. Form of production in which raw and semi-finished materials are processed, assembled, or converted into finished products. An assembly process that produces a large number of identical products. Raw materials constantly move through specially designed equipment that changes their form to make them more usable for consumption or further manufacturing. The same thing is done over and over to produce a product. Uses short production runs to make predetermined quantities of different products. Process used to design and build a unique product to meet the specific needs of the purchaser. Use of manufacturing techniques that use technology to produce customized products at a low per-unit cost. Known as cad, which is a computer application where engineers can design and test products before they are even built.
