Small-batch and unit production. Small-batch production firms produce goods in batches of one or a few products

Question:

Small-batch and unit production. Small-batch production firms produce goods in batches of one or a few products designed to customer specification. Each customer orders a unique product. This technology is used to make large, one-of-a-kind products, such as computer-controlled machines. Small-batch manufacturing is close to traditional skilled craftwork because human beings are a large part of the process.

Examples of items produced through small-batch manufacturing include custom clothing, special-order machine tools, space capsules, satellites, and submarines.
