Rapid product development creates conflict because managers cannot easily change
designs or materials used in the production. However, managers use management
structures, technology, and alliances that allow them to be more responsive and
effective.
◆ Rapid product development: Technology combined with rapid international
communication of news, entertainment, and lifestyles is dramatically chopping away at the
life span of products. OM is answering with new management structures, enhanced
collaboration, digital technology, and creative alliances that are more responsive and
effective.
Teknologi yang dikombinasikan dengan komunikasi internasional yang cepat dari berita,
entertainment dan lifestyle (gaya hidup) membuat pemotongan secara drastic dari usia
suatu produk. OM yang akan menjawab dengan struktur manajemen yang baru,
penambahan kerja sama, teknologi digital dan aliansi kreatif yang lebih responsive dan
effective.
◆ Mass customization: Once managers recognize the world as the marketplace, the cultural
and individual differences become quite obvious. In a world where consumers are
increasingly aware of innovation and options, substantial pressure is placed on firms to
respond in a creative way. And OM must rapidly respond with product designs and flexible
production processes that cater to the individual whims of consumers. The goal is to
produce customized products, whenever and wherever needed.
Ketika manajer sadar bahwa dunia sebagai marketplace, budaya dan perbedaan individu
menjadi sangat jelas. Di dalam dunia yang konsumen sadar akan peningkatan dari inovasi
dan pilihan, tekanan yang substansi adalah penempatan perusahaan untuk merespon pada
posisi yang kreatif. Dan OM harus merespon dengan cepat dengan desain produk dan
proses produksi yang fleksibel yang melayani setiap keinginan individu dari konsumen. Goal
nya adalah memproduksi berbagai macam produk, kapan pun dan dimanapun dibutuhkan.
Dulu era manufaktur kerajinan, produk sangat terbatas sekali. Setiap barang di produksi sedikit variasi
(low variety) dengan harga tinggi (high price) bahkan setiap produksi membutuhkan waktu yang cukup
lama. Lalu dengan munculnya revolusi industri, munculnya mesin-mesin produksi. manufaktur pindah
dari era kerajinan ke era produksi massal (Mass Production). Produksi massal (Mass Production)
membuat produk yang macamnya terbatas (low variety) namun harga murah (low price) serta waktu
produksi yang lebih cepat.
Saat ini ada sebuah era baru yang muncul dan itu disebut Kustomisasi Massal (Mass Customization).
Menurut Laudon (2010), mass customization adalah kemampuan untuk menawarkan produk atau jasa
yang disesuaikan secara individu dengan menggunakan sumber daya produksi yang sama seperti mass
production.
Mass Customization membuat produk lebih variatif (High variety) dengan harga murah (low price). Mass
Customization dapat menyesuaikan produk dengan cepat bagi nasabah individu maupun untuk pasar
ceruk (niche), produksi efisiensi dari produksi massal dan waktu produksi lebih cepat. Menggunakan
prinsip yang sama, mass customization merupakan Build-to-Orde, produk yang disesuaikan namun
dapat diproduksi secara massal pula.
Menurut Gilmor dan Joseph (1997), ada 4 (empat) pendekatan dalam customization, yaitu :
1. Customizers Kolaboratif, yaitu pendekatan dimana pelanggan/individu melakukan dialog untuk
membantu mengartikulasikan kebutuhan mereka dan untuk membuat produk yang disesuaikan untuk
mereka.
Contoh : Salon Rambut, pelanggan dapat konsultasi atau berdialog mengenai jenis/type potongan
rambut yang diinginkan.
2. Customizers Adaptive, manufactur menawarkan produk standar, namun masih dapat disesuaikan.
Produk dirancang dalam bentuk standar tersebut dibuat sedemikan rupa sehingga pengguna masih
dapat mengubahnya sendiri.
Contoh : Handphone, dengan membenamkan teknologi didalamnya setiap customer dapat
menambahkan fungsi dalam produk tersebut.
3. Customizer Cosmetic, yaitu menyajikan produk standar berbeda untuk berbeda pelanggan.
Pendekatan kosmetik tepat ketika pelanggan menggunakan produk cara yang sama dan hanya berbeda
dalam bagaimana mereka ingin disajikan. menawarkan standar yang dikemas khusus untuk setiap
pelanggan.
Contoh : Gula yang dikemas dalam packing ½ kg, 1 kg, 2 kg, sehingga pelanggan mempunyai pilihan.
Seluruh perusahaan di dunia saat ini menyadari kebutuhan untuk memberikan pelayanan yang
memuaskan untuk pelanggan. Dalam keinginan perusahaan untuk memenuhi keinginan pelanggan,
mendorong banyak perusahaan terpaksa menciptakan program-program baru dan prosedur untuk
memenuhi setiap permintaan pelanggan. Dalam melakukan Mass Custimization, bagaimana perusahaan
memberikan nilai yang unik/nilai tambah suatu produk sesuai keinginan pelanggan namun dengan cara
yang efisien.
Teknologi informasi tepat guna dan proses kerja yang fleksibel memungkinkan perusahaan untuk
menyesuaikan barang atau jasa bagi pelanggan perorangan dalam volume tinggi dan dengan harga yang
relatif biaya rendah. Sehingga perusahaan lebih kompetitif dalam memenuhi keinginan setiap pelanggan
serta mampu menang dalam persaingan global.
The “voice of the customer” is the term used to describe the stated and unstated needs or requirements of the
customer. The voice of the customer can be captured in a variety of ways: Direct discussion or interviews, surveys,
focus groups, customer specifications, observation, warranty data, field reports, complaint logs, etc.
This data is used to identify the quality attributes needed for a supplied component or material to incorporate in the
process or product.
Understanding the customer is the premier issue in new-product development. Many commercially
important products are initially thought of and even prototyped by users rather
than producers. Such products tend to be developed by “lead users”—companies, organizations,
or individuals that are well ahead of market trends and have needs that go far
beyond those of average users. The operations manager must be “tuned in” to the market
and particularly these innovative lead users.
The Voice of the Customer (VOC) is a process for capturing customers’ requirements. It produces a
detailed set of customer wants and needs which are organized into a hierarchical structure, and then
prioritized in terms of relative importance and satisfaction with current alternatives. There are four
aspects of the VOC – customer needs, a hierarchical structure, priorities, and customer perceptions of
performance.
The Voice of the Customer process has important outputs and benefits for product developers. It
provides a detailed understanding of the customer’s requirements, a common language for the team
going forward in the product development process, key input for the setting of appropriate design
specifications for the new product or service, and a highly useful springboard for product innovation. As
may be seen in the examples presented, gathering the Voice of the Customer is an extremely important
part of the new product development process. It forms a solid basis for design and marketing decisions
from concept development through product launch.
The Voice of the Customer (VOC) is a term used in business to describe the process of capturing

Voice of the Customer studies typically consist of both qualitative and quantitative market research
steps. They are generally conducted at the start (or “Fuzzy Front End”) of any new product, process, or
service design initiative in order to understand better the customer’s wants and needs (see WIEM05-
022). The VOC can also be a key input for new product definition, Quality Function Deployment (QFD)
(see WIEM05-023), or the setting of detailed design specifications (see WIEM05-049). It is critical that
the product development core team own and be highly involved in this process. They must be the ones
who take the lead in defining the topic, designing the sample (i.e., the types of customers to include),
generating the questions for the discussion guide, either conducting or observing and analyzing the
interviews, and extracting and processing the needs statements. Only by being highly involved can the
team fully internalize the VOC and make effective product design decisions (see WIEM05-002).
