Geographical Distribution of PLM Revenues—History and Forecast
“The global PLM market grew strongly in 2019, just below our forecasts,” states Stan Przybylinski, CIMdata Vice President and research lead. “The leading PLM solution providers continue to consolidate their portfolios after years of acquisitions. They increased revenues in 2019, in part, by expanding their footprints at their existing clients. Industrial companies are using PLM to enable highly collaborative, distributed, flexible design, and manufacturing environments to help better manage the entire product or plant lifecycle. This ability is critical to all industries and only becomes more complex as smart, connected products must act as parts of larger systems. Another big driver of PLM growth is the push toward digital transformation and Industry 4.0, which must be powered by strong PLM strategies and enabling solutions in manufacturing companies. Autodesk’s continued strong growth played a big role, particularly in segments where they are strong like mechanical computer-aided design and architecture, engineering, and construction.”
