CIMdata Publishes PLM Market and Solution Provider Report, Third Module of the 2015 PLM MAR Report Series

CIMdata, Inc., the leading global PLM strategic management consulting and research firm announces the release of the CIMdata PLM Market and Solution Provider Analysis Report, the third of five modules of the CIMdata 2015 PLM Market Analysis Report Series. The MAR Series provides detailed information and in-depth analysis on the worldwide PLM market during 2014. It contains analyses of major trends and issues; revenues of leading PLM providers; and revenue analyses for geographical regions, industry sectors, and historical and projected data on market growth.

  1. The CIMdata PLM Market Analysis Report Series is packaged as five modules:
  2. The CIMdata 2015 Executive PLM Market Report provides an overview of CIMdata’s complete global analysis. It includes key charts on PLM market investment statistics through 2015, forecasts of investments for 2015 through 2019, and a summary of PLM solution providers’ performance in 2014.
  3. The CIMdata 2015 PLM Industry Review and Trends Report is mainly qualitative in nature, and focuses on key issues facing the global PLM ecosystem of solution providers and end user organizations. It highlights changes that occurred in 2014, what effects those changes may have in the short and medium term, and what is on the horizon in the years to come.
  4. The CIMdata 2015 PLM Market and Solution Provider Analysis Report details measures of and forecasts for the overall PLM market and its key segments, including Tools, cPDm, and Digital Manufacturing. The Tools section has additional details on sub-segments, including MCAD, NC, S&A, EDA, and AEC. It also includes CIMdata’s estimates of PLM solution provider revenues in these segments and sub-segments for 2015 through 2019.
  5. The CIMdata 2015 PLM Market Geographic Analysis Report provides an additional view of the 2014 market results, by major geography. CIMdata’s 2014 estimates and market forecasts for 2015 through 2019 for PLM and the major PLM market segments are provided for the Americas, EMEA, and Asia-Pacific. In addition, the report includes estimates and forecasts for the cPDm segment within specific European and Asia-Pacific countries and regions.

The CIMdata 2015 PLM Market Industry Analysis Report provides an industry segmentation view of the 2014 market results. CIMdata’s 2014 estimates and market forecasts for 2015 through 2019 for PLM and cPDm are provided for eight different industry sectors: aerospace and defense; automotive and other transportation; electronics/telecommunications; fabrication and assembly; process-packaged goods; process—petrochemical; utilities; and construction, infrastructure and shipbuilding.

“The PLM market grew 8% to $37.6 billion in 2014, another solid year in the face of continued softness in the global economy,” according to Stan Przybylinski, CIMdata’s Vice President of Research, “Most of the PLM market leaders had strong growth, and all continued to make strategic acquisitions to expand their portfolios and, in some cases, to enter new markets. Looking toward 2019, CIMdata forecasts the PLM market to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.9% to $50 billion.”

Companies make PLM investments in many different areas and with many types of solutions including mechanical CAD, simulation and analysis, visualization and collaboration, building design, and others. This diversity is reflected in the many different solutions providers to the PLM market and in the fact that no single type of provider dominates the industry. During 2014, a number of providers generated substantial revenues that represent PLM-related investments. Sixteen providers generated PLM revenues in excess of $500 million from both the tools and the cPDm segments. Three solution providers, Dassault Systèmes, PTC, and Siemens PLM Software, are major providers of both tools and cPDm technology while others, such as Autodesk and Mentor Graphics, are primarily tool providers that focus on specific segments within the overall market.

The CIMdata PLM Market Analysis Report Series is available as a five-module set or each module can be purchased separately. It is also available as part of the CIMdata PLM Community Gold Membership. Further details and pricing information about the report and Community Memberships are available at www.cimdata.com.
