Increasing Prices of Asset Performance Management System to Hamper the Market Growth

The complex and customized system requirements of the small, medium and large firms are increasing the price of asset performance management systems. Asset performance management is valued as per the size of the business due to the need to optimize every aspect of the business. It also helps in planning a strategy that evaluates the risks and leads to proper management of the assets.

The usage of techniques such as predictive analytics and digital twin technology in asset performance management solutions allows the business to anticipate equipment loss. Besides, its compliance with regulatory standards to predict risks makes the system more complex and difficult to customize. Thus, the massive use of emerging technologies and the compliance with industry regulations rightly customized for the businesses has led to the increment in the price of the asset performance management systems, further hampering the market growth. 

Impact of COVID-19

The pandemic has caused lockdown across the globe, compelling the governments to temporarily shut down the companies in almost all industrial verticals. The asset performance management market is likely to experience significant growth due to its ability to provide a complete assessment of the assets and saving them from failures. The minimal human intervention has proved to be beneficial during this unprecedented time as there is the uncertainty of staffing and resources in the companies due to the practices of social distancing and quarantine.

Asset Performance Management System: Segmentation

Utilization of Emerging Technologies Drives the Solution Segment Growth/ Solution Segment Holds the Highest Market Share

Based on components, the asset performance management market is divided into solutions and services. The solution segment holds the highest market share due to its differentiability, customizability, and easy operability of the assets. It is further divided into asset strategy management, asset reliability management, predictive asset management, and others. The utilization of technologies such as IoT, AI, digital twin, Industrial IoT has been beneficial for the solution segment. As per an article published by one of the key players, GE Digital, its customers from the oil and gas industry saved around USD 5.3 million by preventing the oil platform equipment failure using the asset performance management solutions. The services segment, on the other hand, caters to a moderate market share and is segmented into professional and managed services.

Cloud Segment to Hold the Largest Market Share/ Increasing Demand for Cost-Effective Employment Platform Drives the Cloud Segment Growth

By the deployment type, the asset performance management market is divided into cloud and on-premise. The cloud segment holds the largest market share on account of the growing popularity of cloud computing among the SMEs. As stated by the ‘Cloud Industry Forum (CIF)’, the adoption rate of cloud services is approximately 88%, thus increasing the utilization of the cloud services in industrial applications.

The asset performance solution provides customized solutions for strategy management, reliability management, and predictive analysis by using advancing technologies, further increasing the need for reliable, secure, and cost-effective deployment platforms. The rising popularity of digitalization and rapid industrialization is subsequently driving the demand for asset performance management solutions among SMEs. On the other hand, the on-premise software is used by professionals as they have been integrated with tremendous features that require more IT resources and support from the engineers to manage, monitor, and respond to the issues and alerts.
