Process Automation Market in Europe: Key Drivers, Trends, and Challenges

The rising demand in the healthcare sector is notably driving the process automation market growth in Europe, although factors such as infrastructure and customization issues may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the process automation industry in Europe. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.

Key Process Automation Market Driver in Europe

One of the key factors driving growth in the Europe process automation market is the rising demand in the healthcare sector. To address the constantly expanding labor shortage in the healthcare industry, hospitals and clinics have begun implementing automated technologies. Because human registration is time-consuming and prone to mistakes, hospitals and clinics are using automated help desks to manage to register cases, manage health data, and maintain treatment status, among other things. Process automation automatically schedules patients' requests for appointments, allowing them to make appointments 24 hours a day, seven days a week. They also aid in handling the growing amount of medical goods while preventing delays or stock-outs of key items and relieving the procurement team's workload. Automation enables pharmaceutical businesses to adhere to high regulatory and compliance standards while lowering operating expenses. By simplifying procedures, automation technologies assist in improving the efficiency of pharmaceutical development and production. The increased use of process automation in the healthcare industry will have a positive impact on the market.

Key Process Automation Market Trend in Europe

The virtualization of automation systems is another factor supporting the Europe process automation market share growth. The virtualization of automation systems can be done using hypervisors, a thin layer between the virtual machine and the host server. The virtual machine contains the operating system (OS) and software. Different OS is operated on top of a primary operating system using virtual machines. Virtualization provides benefits such as optimum resource utilization and operation and power cost savings. As most of the physical servers are designed to run only one OS and application at a time, it limits the server's performance. Virtualization allows a single server to run multiple operating systems and applications simultaneously. It will also enable flexibility in adopting automation systems in the process and discrete industries. Factors such as this will fuel the market demand during the forecast period.

Key Process Automation Market Challenge in Europe

The infrastructure and customization issues will be a major challenge for the Europe process automation market during the forecast period. When deploying a process automation system, a firm must invest in dependable infrastructure and skilled staff to oversee the entire process. It is tough, complex, and expensive to set up infrastructure, hire professionals or educate current personnel, and deploy thousands of bots. The platform on which automation bots frequently operate changes, and the requisite adaptability is not always included in bots. As a result, many businesses resist using process automation. Furthermore, this technology needs a distinct identity as well as cutting-edge technology. It is difficult to deploy modification in response to changing corporate requirements. As a result, the process automation market's growth has been hampered and will continue to be hampered.

This process automation market in Europe analysis report also provides detailed information on other upcoming trends and challenges that will have a far-reaching effect on the market growth. The actionable insights on the trends and challenges will help companies evaluate and develop growth strategies for 2022-2026.
