WorldWide (SCADA) Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition Market, Industry / Sector Analysis Report, Regional Outlook & Competitive Market Share & Forecast, 2019 - 2025 (Includes Business Impact of COVID-19)

                                          
SCADA Market size is anticipated to witness several growth opportunities over the coming years owing to the growing demand of SCADA in process automation, rising awareness among consumers, and reduction in the operating costs. The system is offering its consumers several benefits, such as decline in the production costs, reduction of output defects, and real-time detection of faults in the machinery, which are enhancing the overall SCADA market growth.
 

These systems are implemented by organizations for intelligence, communication, control, command, and surveillance purposes. The demand for continuous maintenance of machinery in several industries to ensure the safety of equipment, machinery, environment, and employees has augmented the adoption of these systems, thereby driving the SCADA market growth. The technology helps in automatically collecting, monitoring, and processing data by recording the developments and sending the data to a central control center, thereby enhancing the organizational efficiency.
 

Moreover, the rise in mobile monitoring and big data analytics usage are anticipated to drive the SCADA market growth. Big data analytics and SCADA systems can be integrated for reducing errors and for decision making. Integration of analytics into SCADA using statistical analysis, forecasting, predictive modeling, and optimization could result in the identification of possible errors. Growing demand for data sharing and real-time data monitoring from remote locations is helping in improving the quality of work and is reducing operational costs, which is beneficial for the business thereby providing an impetus to the SCADA market growth.
 

Ongoing advancements in machine learning and hardware & software based systems are playing a vital role in the automatization of jobs, which is enabling intricate secondary logistics synthesis. Innovative efforts from several industry players have further improved the efficiency of the systems. Over the years, the SCADA market has developed to an extremely mature market owing to the availability of advanced SCADA products.
 

Lack of awareness about the ongoing Information Technology (IT) trends among businesses is a major factor hindering the deployment of SCADA systems in the industry. However, with recent advancements, the systems can easily be embedded in the smartphones, which is providing ease-of-access to all the workforces. Consumerization of technology products and low protection for several industrial systems are further hampering the SCADA market growth. Weaknesses of these systems have led to the implementation of SCADA systems in infrastructures, which are susceptible to attacks and exploits.
 

The SCADA market based on components can be segmented into Human Machine Interface (HMI), Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), Remote Terminal Unit (RTU), and communication systems. The RTU market is projected to hold a high revenue share in the overall SCADA market. The major share of RTU in the industry is credited to the components’ ability to allow efficient decision making for the operators. Deep sea exploration and extraction of shale gas in the oil & gas industry using several RTU systems are further driving the demand for the RTU device implementation.
 

On basis of the end-use industries, the SCADA market can be segmented into chemicals, electrical power grids, manufacturing, oil & gas, pharmaceuticals, telecommunication, transportation, and water & wastewater industries. The oil & gas vertical is anticipated to grow at a high rate over the forecast time span. SCADA solutions when implemented in this vertical help in automatizing the processes thereby aiding to easily explore and extract the oil & gas. The increasing deployment of SCADA systems to reduce losses and optimize the production is also aiding the growth of the SCADA market significantly.
 

Asia Pacific SCADA market is anticipated to offer high growth opportunities over the forecast time span owing to the rise in end-use applications such as manufacturing and telecommunication. In addition, the increase in the number of developing industries, the need for automated industries, and growing living standards in the region have led to an increase in the energy demand from power and oil & gas industry. These factors have led to an increased demand for automated solutions in the region thereby propelling the SCADA market growth.
