According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Industrial Automation And Control Systems Market is accounted for $217.9 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach $441.8 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 12.5% during the forecast period. Industrial Automation and Control Systems (IACS) encompass technologies used to control and automate industrial processes, enhancing efficiency, productivity, and safety. With advancements in IoT, AI, and machine learning, IACS are becoming more intelligent and interconnected, driving innovation and operational excellence. The adoption of these systems is accelerating due to the need for optimized production, cost reduction, and improved quality control.
According to the McKinsey Worldwide Institute, automation might boost global productivity by as much as 1.4 percent every year. Furthermore, all vocations have the potential for partial automation because a large amount of their operations can be automated.
Market Dynamics:
Driver:
Increased demand for efficiency and productivity
Industries across sectors such as manufacturing, energy, pharmaceuticals, and logistics are under pressure to improve operational efficiency, reduce costs, and enhance productivity to remain competitive in a globalized economy. This demand directly fuels the adoption of automation technologies within industrial processes. Industrial automation solutions offer capabilities such as real-time monitoring, predictive maintenance, process optimization, and automation of repetitive tasks.
Restraint:
Integration challenges with legacy systems
Legacy systems often use outdated technologies and protocols that are incompatible with modern automation solutions. This incompatibility leads to complexities and additional costs in integrating new automation technologies with existing infrastructure. It slows down the adoption of advanced automation solutions as companies struggle with retrofitting or replacing outdated systems. This delay hampers market growth and innovation in IACS technologies and integration challenges can compromise system interoperability and reliability, affecting overall operational efficiency and productivity gains promised by automation.
Opportunity:
Government initiatives promoting industrial automation
Incentivizing industries to adopt automation technologies, governments stimulate growth in the IACS sector. These initiatives typically include subsidies, tax incentives, and funding for research and development in automation technologies. As a result, there is increased adoption of advanced control systems, robotics, IoT-enabled devices, and AI-driven solutions across various industries such as manufacturing, energy, and healthcare. Additionally, regulatory frameworks that mandate safety and cybersecurity standards also contribute to the growth of the IACS market by ensuring the secure deployment of automation technologies.
Threat:
Skilled workforce shortage
A lack of expertise in cybersecurity best practices can leave IACS vulnerable to cyberattacks. Without skilled personnel for proper system hardening and monitoring, businesses risk production disruptions, data breaches, and financial losses. Even after successful deployment, ongoing optimization and maintenance are crucial for optimal IACS performance. A shortage of skilled workers can make it difficult to find qualified personnel for these tasks, potentially leading to system inefficiencies and increased downtime hindering the market growth.
Covid-19 Impact
The COVID-19 pandemic significantly accelerated the adoption of Industrial Automation and Control Systems (IACS). With social distancing and lockdown measures, industries sought to minimize human presence on the shop floor, leading to increased reliance on automation for operational continuity. Supply chain disruptions highlighted the need for resilient and flexible manufacturing processes, driving investment in advanced control systems. Although initial economic slowdowns and project delays temporarily affected market growth, the long-term impact has been a heightened focus on digitalization, remote monitoring, and automation to enhance productivity, safety, and efficiency in a post-pandemic world.
The distributed control system (DCS) segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period
The distributed control system (DCS) is expected to be the largest during the forecast period owing to fast pace of adoption of IIOT preference of industrialists to deploy automated control systems, which is driving the market growth for DCS. Additionally, the advent of 5G and its adoption in the power generation sector is expected to boost the integration of IoT and DCS using 5G technology for better output efficiency.
The healthcare segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period
The healthcare segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period owing to the consultation and services offered in order to treat patients’ health issues such as curative, palliative, rehabilitative, and curative. Automation and control improve operational costs, and supply chain errors, and improve customer center, which accounts for better care and treatment of patients. Automation has also enabled doctors to conduct surgeries remotely or with minimal human interference for added precision and safety, which is anticipated to drive the segment growth.
Region with largest share:
North America is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period owing to the manufacturing units in the region being driven to implement the latest technological advances and digital transformation abilities to make their business processes more efficient and effective due to a rapid increase in competition and increasing end-user requirements. Industrial automation is also being adopted in many regional sectors such as automotive, healthcare, manufacturing, and more in the region, with significant companies placing industrial automation products on the market.
Region with highest CAGR:
Asia Pacific is projected to hold the highest CAGR over the forecast period attributed to the presence of key market players and emerging companies in the region. Additionally, the growing demand for improved solutions to manage industrial plants in India and China is driving market growth in the region. The implementation of smart production facilities from conventional production facilities is a typical trend, and it assists in the general acceptance of industrial automation, which is driving the market growth further across the region.
