customization (n.) or customized/customizable (adj.)
Explanation:
二次开发组件 - may be customized components (fitted for a particular need) or customizable components (may be refitted for different needs)
二次开发需求 - customization requirements

Also see http://cbs.colognet.org/adaptation.php:
"We can distinguish adaptation from customization and evolution. The former refers to the configuration of a component by an end user. Here, components are configured according to options predefined by the component provider."

If your client is highly specific about what he or she means, you might have to use "adaptation" and "adaptable" instead if the client is being provided components that he or she can configure. But generally speaking, adaptation and customization mean the same thing for most people in IT.
