The effect of country level factors on the trade-off between cost and flexibility in mass customization
(2015) 22nd International Annual EurOMA (European Operations Management Association) Conference- Abstract
- Insufficient attention has been paid to both the relationship between mass customization capability and operational performance and the contingency factors affecting this relationship.

The results show that mass customization capability positively impacts both flexibility performance and cost performance. In addition, national logistics performance and a country’s risk level impact the relationship between mass customization capability and cost performance in... (More)
