Our research report has extensively covered external factors influencing the parent market growth during the forecast period.
The increasing number of electronics manufacturing services providers in economies with low hourly wages are notably driving the market growth, although factors such as the risk of intellectual property theft and misuse may impede the market growth. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
Key Electronics Manufacturing Services Market Driver
The increasing number of electronics manufacturing services providers in economies with low hourly wages is the key factor driving global electronics manufacturing services market growth. One of the key factors driving the growth of the global electronics manufacturing services market is significant cost savings derived from delegating work to electronics manufacturing services providers in low-cost economies. The reduction in costs for electronics manufacturing services providers associated with maintaining technology infrastructure, manufacturing space, operations, and staffing, has been a key factor supporting their expansion in low-cost countries. Electronics manufacturing services providers benefit from labor arbitrage through the maintenance of a lean workforce and reduced spending on employee hiring and retention.
Easy and direct access to skilled talent and advanced technologies in low-cost countries has also been increasing the presence of electronics manufacturing services providers in such economies. The outsourcing of electronics manufacturing to such electronics manufacturing services providers not only allows businesses to scale operations on-demand in line with their operational requirements but also enables them to improve their profit margins by negotiating better deals with electronics manufacturing service providers. This is propelling the growth of the market in focus.
Key Electronics Manufacturing Services Market Trend
The collaborative co-innovation partnership with electronics manufacturing services providers is the primary trend in the global electronics manufacturing services market. Collaborative partnerships in outsourcing call for risk sharing and value sharing, deriving from the joint functioning between the customer organization and the outsourcing service provider. At the same time, co-innovation refers to the two parties managing the flow of knowledge across organizational boundaries to jointly develop new solutions and products that create significant value for both.
Although the risks and challenges associated with electronics manufacturing services adoption are deepening each year, many companies are continuing to operate their outsourcing relationships successfully through extensive collaborations and co-innovations. electronics manufacturing services providers are regarded as integrated strategic partners of their clients' supply chains under such instances. The customer company itself is invested in the functioning of its outsourcing partner and may be involved in the continuous monitoring of offshore locations to ensure optimum quality of operations and management. Such developments are expected to make the market ecosystem more favorable for growth during the forecast period, which will, in turn, drive the growth of the market in focus.
Key Electronics Manufacturing Services Market Challenge
The risk of intellectual property theft and misuse is a major challenge to the global electronics manufacturing services market growth. The risk of intellectual property (IP) theft is a key challenge that the global electronics manufacturing services market faces. Many electronics businesses keep their manufacturing designs classified and have stringent policies in place, which restrict them from outsourcing manufacturing to electronics manufacturing service providers. The purpose of these policies is to aid the company in preventing theft or leakage of critical or classified product designs.
EMS providers or vendors usually work on a contract basis for their customers, and these electronics manufacturing service providers cater to the needs of multiple businesses simultaneously. Despite detailed documentation, which takes place before the contract is awarded to an electronics manufacturing services provider, there still are concerns among customers regarding the potential loss of IP technology and designs, data theft, and the misuse of these technologies at the electronics manufacturing services providers' end. This is limiting the growth of the market in focus.
