    Abstract

    In the past decades, the manufacturing industry has gone through dramatic
    improvement in productivity, cycle time, and inventory level of manufacturing
    applying information technology and manufacturing technology. However,
    the construction industry has not yet been able to enjoy similar magnitude of
    improvements. The aim of this paper is therefore to investigate which of the
    normally used procurement forms in the Danish construction industry would
    facilitate the implementing mass customization. Benchmark results from 2,318
    cases were obtained from The Benchmark Centre for the Danish Construction
    Sector containing information on the realization processes and the integration of
    customers likely to answer the question of which procurement or contract form
    that would best accommodate the facilitation of near-mass customization performance.
    To test this, a one-way ANOVA comparison was used, and it was found
    that Partnering and Turnkey Contracts significantly enhance the likelihood of
    facilitating the implementing mass customization than all other contract forms.
