The current digital manufacturing services market size stands at $1.7n. It will reach $3.1bn by 2025, growing at 15% CAGR during the period. The pandemic has made digital manufacturing and its emphasis on remote work more relevant than ever. However, it also slowed down investment in 2020 across sectors and, in particular, in automotive and commercial aeronautics.
Enterprises are currently buying remote monitoring and control; and, to a lesser extent, predictive maintenance; inspection; assistance, instructions & training; and connected worker.
Most contracts are small, ranging from consulting to PoCs leading to relatively small systems integration and deployment contracts. Enterprises award these contracts as independent ones, with few organizations awarding mega-deals. The market will shift to a higher number of systems integration and deployment contracts, as buyers look to progress from their PoCs. Mega-deals will remain scarce, but mid-sized deals will more frequent, with buyers structuring their spending with a few preferred partners.
IoT (including track-and-trace) is the primary technology used in digital manufacturing. It is complemented by data collection, analytics, and AI. Within AI, computer vision gains in adoption.Other technologies include AR/VR. IoT continues to play a key role and gets supplemented by other sources of data, mostly internal data from back-end and manufacturing applications. External data such as traffic and weather data become more important for track-and-trace based use cases. AI gains further in strength led by computer vision and across industrial automation & robotics, and 5G.
