“…Consequently, customization could vary, ranging from a simple modification of a standard product all the way to a complete delivery unique and bespoke (one of a kind) product (see, e.g., Alford et al, 2000;Coronado et al, 2004;Davis, 1989;Lampel & Mintzberg, 1996;Ross, 1996;Sharma, 1987;Da Silveira et al, 2001). Whether a modification or a complete bespoke product, the point where the customization is made has been referred to as the point of differentiation (e.g., Tang, 2006), differentiation point (Wikner & Wong, 2007;Wong et al, 2009), point of product differentiation (e.g., García-Dastugue & Lambert, 2007;Mason-Jones & Towill, 1999b;Naylor et al, 1999;Nieuwenhuis & Katsifou, 2015) and product differentiation point Daaboul et al, 2015). To keep the discussion general, not only to focus on products, the term used in this paper is point of differentiation.…”
