Methodology

How the estimates were built: data sources, modelling approach and validation steps.

Research approach

A market size is a claim about the world, and a claim is only as good as the route to it. Every study is built upward from units and prices — what is actually produced, sold or performed, at what it actually changes hands for — rather than from a headline figure divided downwards. Disclosed company revenue is then used to check that build, not to produce it.

Market size estimation, this report

The estimate is built upward from the installed base of monitored electrical assets, generator sets, switchgear panels and process feeders across oil and gas, marine, utility, metals and mining and chemicals sites, multiplied by the average system, software and service price realised per site tier and per component category. Volumes are drawn from plant counts and capacity additions in each end industry; prices are drawn from tender and procurement data for comparable installations. The resulting figure is checked against the disclosed process-automation and power-systems segment revenue of the named suppliers; where a mismatch appears, the unit volume or attach-rate assumption behind the bottom-up build is revisited and corrected, not averaged against the check.

The four stages

The same sequence runs behind every published study, whatever the industry. The order matters as much as the steps: the segment axes are fixed before any number is collected, so the model is never reshaped to fit whatever data happens to turn up.

What the build rests on, and what checks it

The two are not interchangeable. The left column produces the number; the right column tests it. When the check disagrees with the build, the answer is to find which bottom-up assumption is wrong — a unit count, a price, a take-up rate — not to split the difference between them.

The bottom-up build rests on
  • Volume actually transacted — units produced, installed, dispensed or procedures performed, counted at the level each is genuinely recorded
  • Realised pricing by tier and channel, rather than one blended average applied across the whole market
  • Take-up and frequency: how much of the addressable base buys, and how often it repeats
The build is checked against
  • Disclosed revenue of the companies serving the market, where filings separate it far enough to be usable
  • Buyer-side spending totals — capital budgets, procurement lines, or the output of the end market the product is bought against
  • Trade and customs flows, where the product crosses borders in a separately recorded form

Data sources

Published data establishes what happened. Only the people transacting in a market can say why, and what is about to change — so the two are collected separately and weighted differently.

Primary — who is interviewed
  • Commercial and product leadership at the companies that supply the market
  • Procurement and specification leads at the organisations that buy it
  • Distributors, integrators and channel partners, where the market is served indirectly
  • Regulatory and standards specialists, where approval governs what can be sold at all
Secondary — what is read
  • Company filings, annual reports and investor disclosure
  • Government statistics, customs records and regulatory registers
  • Trade association output and standards-body publications
  • Technical and peer-reviewed literature, where the market rests on a clinical or engineering claim
Primary research design, this report

Primary interviews target plant electrical engineers, process-automation and control-system managers, procurement leads at oil and gas, marine, utility and mining operators, and channel partners who resell or integrate monitoring and switching systems, along with regulatory and grid-code specialists in markets with active modernization mandates. Sampling weights North America and Europe for mature grid and process-safety practice, and Asia Pacific for capacity-addition and new-build activity, with additional coverage in the Middle East for oil and gas asset monitoring. Conversations focus on system selection criteria, retrofit versus new-build budget allocation, and the pace at which cloud-based and analytics modules are being added to existing installed hardware.

Secondary sources, this report

Desk research draws on national grid-code and utility regulatory filings, IEC and IEEE power-system standards registers, customs and trade data under HS code 8537 for switchgear and control panel shipments, tender notices published by national utilities and national oil companies, and the segment disclosures in the annual reports and investor presentations of the named suppliers. Industrial capacity and capital expenditure data from national statistical agencies and energy-ministry publications in the largest markets supplement plant-count estimates, and classification-society records are used to cross-check marine installation counts.

Desk research runs across proprietary research databases including Factiva, OneSource and Hoovers alongside the public sources above. Modelling and statistical validation are run in SAS and SPSS.

Forecasting

The forecast is not a growth rate applied to a base year. It is built from the drivers that are expected to change, each one stated so a reader can disagree with it.

Forecast approach, this report

The forecast is built from planned capacity additions and modernization budgets already disclosed by utilities and large industrial operators, the pace at which cloud-based deployment is being added to existing on-premises installations, and the price trend for monitoring and analytics software as it separates from hardware. Grid-modernization and renewable-integration mandates already legislated in the largest markets are treated as committed demand rather than a projection; growth in newer categories such as data historian and analytics software assumes continued attach-rate expansion at the pace observed in the most recent two years, without a step change in the underlying replacement cycle for hardware.

Triangulation and validation

No figure enters a report on the strength of one source. Where the two sizing routes disagree the difference is not averaged away — the assumption causing it is isolated, tested against a third independent measure, and either corrected or carried forward as a stated limitation. Historical years are back-tested against the growth actually recorded before any forecast is allowed to run forward from them.

Validation, this report

Outputs are back-tested against recorded 2020 to 2024 growth in the same end industries to confirm the forecast trajectory does not diverge from realised installation and retrofit activity. Segment-level shifts, particularly the reallocation of share toward data historian and cloud-based deployment, were reviewed against plant-level digitalization announcements to confirm the pace assumed is consistent with what operators have actually committed to rather than what vendors are marketing. Sensitivities were tested on the pace of utility grid-modernization spending and on oil and gas capital expenditure cycles, since both are the assumptions most able to move the forecast if they slow or accelerate.

Confidence and limitations

Where an estimate is firm and where it is not is stated rather than left to be inferred from the precision of the number.

Confidence framing, this report

Confidence is strongest for the Power Monitoring and Control, Switching and Safety Management and Oil & Gas figures, where installed-base counts and supplier segment disclosures are both available and consistent. It is weaker for Data Historian and Cloud-Based deployment, where reporting is thinner and attach-rate data is inferred rather than directly disclosed, and for smaller markets in Latin America and the Middle East and Africa, where plant-level data is sparser. A material slowdown in utility capital spending or a delay to announced grid-modernization programs are the two risks most likely to force a downward revision.
