________ is the ability of a supply chain to delay product differentiation or customization until closer to the time the product is sold.

A) Specialization
B) Centralization
C) Postponement
D) Aggregation

Postponement refers to the ability of a supply chain to delay product differentiation or customization until closer to the time the product is sold. This can help companies reduce the costs of inventory management, production, and transportation, as well as improve their ability to respond to changes in customer demand and preferences. Specialization, centralization, and aggregation are all related concepts, but they do not specifically refer to the ability to delay product differentiation or customization.
