ATO, short for Assemble To Order, refers to a production process in which end products are assembled based on specific customer orders. This approach allows companies to offer a high degree of product customization by assembling components or modules only after receiving a customer order.
ATO is often used in industries where customers have specific requirements, such as the automotive industry, mechanical engineering or high-tech appliances. The advantage of this system is that it reduces warehousing costs and increases customer loyalty through customized products.
