Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The ability to adjust to changes in demand is not common to both repetitive and product-oriented layouts. In repetitive layouts, the production process is usually designed to produce a single product or a small range of products in high volume, whereas in product-oriented layouts, the focus is on the efficient production of a specific product. Both layouts do share similarities such as high rate of output, specialization of labor, and low unit costs.
