Market Share of North America Process Automation Industry
The barriers to exit are non-supportive, considering the high-cost equipment needed for producing these systems. Many companies operating in the market eliminate the competition through acquisitions and strategic mergers or new smart initiatives, and hence, the market is expected to become more competitive despite consolidation during the forecast period.
• May 2024 - Siemens unveiled a significant advancement in factory management, addressing the complexity of handling multiple hardware control points. The answer comes in the form of the Siemens Simatic Automation Workstation. This innovative solution enables manufacturers to consolidate a hardware PLC, a traditional HMI, and an edge device into a unified, software-based workstation. This integration seamlessly merges Information Technology (IT) practices into Operational Technology (OT) settings.
• October 2023 - Emerson announced new technologies that support its Boundless Automation vision, a software-centric industrial automation platform that connects data from the field, the edge, and the cloud. The new technology releases will transcend a traditional control system, creating a more advanced automation platform that contextualizes and democratizes data for both people and the artificial intelligence (AI) engines that shape the way the world operates.
