Abstract

PurposeDespite the growing interest in enhancing mass customization capability (MCC), firms still have little knowledge of dealing with the superimposed challenges of increased market uncertainty and supply chain disruptions. Based on the dynamic capability view, this study focuses on the impacts of frequent sensing and reconfiguring processes on MCC and the mediating roles of proactive and reactive supply chain resilience (SCR).Design/methodology/approachWe collected survey data from 277 manufacturing firms and conducted a structural equation model to test hypotheses.FindingsThe results reveal that although its direct effect on MCC is insignificant, sensing process improves MCC indirectly via reactive SCR. Our findings also show that reconfiguring process enhances MCC both directly and indirectly via reactive SCR.Originality/valueThis study provides theoretical and practical insights into how to combine dynamic capability and SCR to strengthen MCC.
