Distribution of 2018 PLM Revenue by Market Sector (US$ Millions)
While the global economy has moderated since the slump in 2009, the PLM Economy, as measured in our PLM market analysis, has continued to grow. In calendar year 2018, the PLM market grew to $47.8 billion overall, 9.4% growth over 2017. “The PLM market, and most segments, saw solid growth in 2018, well over our forecast,” stated Mr. Stan Przybylinski, CIMdata’s Vice President. “Simulation and Analysis (S&A) continued its run of strong growth at 12.7%. Autodesk’s emergence through their license model transition, and it’s 25% year on year growth as a company, helped segments where they are strong, like Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) and MCAD-Design Focused grow well above their historical norms. We expect the move toward smart, connected products to continue growth in S&A, software development tools, and electronic design automation (EDA).”
