Process Automation The Global Process Automation Market reached USD million in 2022 and is projected to witness lucrative growth by reaching up to USD million by 2030. The market is growing at a CAGR of 7.6% during the forecast period (2024-2031).
Process automation is the use of software and technologies to automate corporate operations and tasks to achieve specific organizational objectives, such as the creation of a product, the recruitment and onboarding of personnel or the provision of customer care.
The improvement in productivity that results from delegating tedious activities to machines that can work longer and faster than people is one of the process automation's most visible benefits.
Process Automation Market Growth
Increasing consumer awareness about benefits of process automation
Process automation lowers labor costs and wasteful time, both of which result in cost savings. Robotic process automation (RPA) robots collect and provide reports that are essential for fresh business concepts while reducing the possibility of human error. Additionally, it helps to cut down on paper-based processes, which enhances work accuracy. The benefits help fuel an increase in demand for process automation across a range of industries.
High implementation and maintenance costs
To establish solutions like DCS at an industrial site, a number of processes must be finished, including systems implementation, process operation, data collecting and consulting. As a result, overall costs rise, increasing the plant owner's operating expenses. Furthermore, automation software programs constantly need to be updated due to ongoing technological breakthroughs. Small enterprises are unable to afford to pay these expenses. Due to the high capital costs associated with system installation, maintenance and upgrades, the market's potential growth is relatively constrained.
Process Automation Market Segmentation Analysis
The global process automation market is segmented based on technology, type, communication protocol, end-user and region.
The rising adoption of new technologies in oil and gas
In terms of end users, oil and gas hold a large market share. The exploration, extraction, production, processing, transportation and marketing of crude oil and natural gas are all part of the oil and gas sector. The sector is essential to the world economy since it provides the main source of energy for heating, electrical production and transportation. To increase productivity, lower costs and have a minimal negative impact on the environment, the industry develops and uses new technologies.
Drilling rigs, pumps and valves, among other pieces of machinery, function best when their performance is optimized through the use of process automation in exploration and production. While controllers are used to modify the process based on the data obtained from the sensors, sensors are used to monitor a variety of factors, including pressure, temperature and flow rate.
