Abstract This paper examines the concept of mass customisation from the point of view of thecustomer. Although the theory of mass customisation has received considerable attention in recentyears, the emphasis has been on identifying and classifying the ways in which mass customisation
can be implemented efficiently and effectively. There appears to have been no empirical evidence tosupport the notion that customers are indeed ready for this approach. The aim of this study is toexamine how far customers are “ready” for mass-customised products, using the UK new carmarket as its basis for analysis. A framework is developed and results presented which suggest thata sizeable section of the market is ready to accept the “inconveniences” of mass-customisedproducts. However, the main inconvenience of mass customisation is identified as increased price,even for “ready” customers. It would seem, therefore, that both global standardisation and masscustomisation strategies are appropriate in this market.
Introduction
Since Levitt (1998) argued that advances in technology in relation to transport andcommunication were the drivers of the globalisation ofmarkets, there has been muchdebate on the feasibility of globally standardised products. Producing for a globalmarket is said to lower prices, with Levitt (1998) concluding that people would sacrificetheir pReferences to have “modernity’s allurements” for the sake of consistent quality atlow prices.
Pine’s (1993) theory of “mass-customisation” appears to contradict the globalisationapproach. According to Pine (1993), people are no longer willing to sacrifice theirpreferences but are looking for exactly what they want and need and are willing to payextra for such products. Moreover, with advances in computer-aided manufacturing,economies of scale can be achieved with a small batch size, and even individual
products can be provided cost effectively. Pine (1993) argued that through technology,anything that can be digitised can be customised. Based on this premise, a number oftheoretical works have emerged in the literature which identify and classify the waysin which mass customisation can be implemented efficiently and effectively (see, for
example, Pine, 1993; Lampel and Mintzberg, 1996; Gilmore and Pine, 1997; Andersenand Pine, 1997; Feitzenger and Lee, 1997). However, there appears to be no systematicempirical evidence to support the notion that customers are indeed ready for thisapproach. The aim of this exploratory study is to begin to examine how far customersare “ready” for mass-customised products.
