Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A make-to-order operation is a manufacturing process where products are only produced once a specific customer order is received. This is in contrast to a make-to-stock operation, where products are produced ahead of time and stocked in inventory, ready for customers to purchase. An assemble-to-batch operation produces products in batches based on long-term demand forecasts. An assemble-to-order operation starts producing products only after receiving a customer order, but the products are made from pre-made components that are stocked in inventory.
