standardization
(redirected from nonstandard)

standardization

Regulation of a company's products so that products are homogeneous. Uniformity and interchangeability of products and parts allows mass production of those products and the resulting economy of scale. Against the benefits that standardization brings must be weighed the restrictions on product range and the inability to deliver highly customized products.
