Upsurge in Infrastructural Investments to Boost Market
Government bodies across countries heavily invest in the construction and infrastructural sector. The infrastructural growth is heavily dependent on three components, renovation of existing buildings, new building construction, and civil engineering.
However, the industry is well-placed to take advantage of infrastructural investments in the global scenario. The market propensity for renovating existing buildings represents the majority of the services related to this industry, performances, and market growth. For this, governmental bodies across emerging countries are contracting with multiple private contractors, including service providers and several international players to keep the infrastructure clean and green, i.e., smart building construction.
Moreover, the development of smart buildings is accelerated by rising real estate investment. A network that connects lighting, sensors, windows, doors, HVAC systems, and CCTV cameras in smart buildings in this industry has become an essential preventative maintenance activity due to the development of these smart buildings. There has been an increase in the market need for these kinds of management services due to multiple buildings requiring cleaning and maintenance services in developed & developing countries.
For instance, Saudi Arabia's government plans to raise USD 36 billion (135 billion riyals) for transportation projects over the next 11 years. Railways, airports, ports, and roadways are the primary targets of this project. The government and a number of private enterprises are both contributing to this initiative. Saudi Arabia plans to invest USD 425 billion (1.6 trillion riyals) in infrastructure and industrial initiatives over the next 10 years, according to the Ministry of Energy. Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman's Vision 2030 initiative will benefit from this private sector investment.
Therefore, the growth of the infrastructure sector in several countries is expected to drive the market. Moreover, service providers across the world have ample opportunities for seeking contracts from private sectors, and this further increases the facility management market share globally.
Limited Use of Technology & Inadequate Optimization Practices to Hinder Market Growth
Several large facilities management service providers with a heavy initial investment in facilities services hardly face challenges regarding limited utilization of technology; this is due to the contracts taken for a long time period.
Most of the time, large enterprises utilize innovative technologies, including Building Information Modeling (BIM) to provide hard and soft services, which allow them to provide better and enhanced services.
On the other hand, small & medium-sized companies in various countries are inadequately implementing the inputs at the initial stage, which is at the designing stage. This results in sustainability-related problems in building facilities, especially during the post-occupancy stage, due to the small & medium-sized companies possessing lack of operation & maintenance (O&M) practices.
Additionally, the service providers across developed and developing economies, such as the U.S., the U.K., Germany, and China, face three major difficulties in implementing technological advancements. The three major difficulties are:
Additionally, the rapid growth in the infrastructure sector is demanding more workforce, which is affecting the domestic market across the country. Furthermore, the businesses are not fully aware of the advantages of facilities management. The issue stems from a lack of knowledge and adoption of the required technology. Many companies are still implementing cloud computing technologies and have yet to implement an IoT ecosystem.
Hence, these are the primary factors that are hindering the growth of the market. However, to resolve such issues, the workforce and controlling costs will play a vital role.
