Technavio Announces Top Six Vendors in the Global Plant Automation Solutions Market from 2016 to 2020


Technavio has announced the top six leading vendors in their recent global plant automation solutions market report. This research report also lists 14 other prominent vendors that are expected to impact the market during the forecast period.

Competitive vendor landscape

The global plant automation solutions market has grown drastically since 2000, and hosts a number of international, regional, and local vendors. The regional and local vendors offer cost-effective customized automation solutions. However, established international players, such as Siemens (News - Alert), ABB, and Honeywell, are expanding their footprint through R&D investments and product innovation. Schneider Electric invested USD 625 million in 2014 in R&D activities. "Major companies across oil and gas, power, chemicals, and petrochemicals, automotive, fertilizers, cement, pharmaceuticals, F&B, and other industries prefer established vendors with reliable supply and lasting automation solutions," says Bharath Kanniappan, a lead analyst at Technavio for automation.

Though local vendors are making efforts to compete in the market, they find it difficult to compete with their established counterparts that dominate the market in terms of quality, features, and system capabilities. In addition, local vendors do not have significant funds to develop and innovate product lines and solution offerings.
