System Integrator Market for Industrial Automation Dynamics
Driver: Increasing safety and security concerns stimulating demand for automation systems
In industries such as oil & gas, energy and power, and chemicals and petrochemicals, safety and security is a high priority. Companies involved in these industries need to strategize their plans in accordance with the regulations and environmental norms set by the different countries. Oil & gas refineries are generally located in extremely harsh areas. These manufacturing units require automation systems to avoid accidents and equipment malfunctioning. Process automation helps monitor and analyze these instruments and faults. Automation also helps collect relevant data and make strategies to increase efficiency.
Restraint: High investment required for automation implementation and maintenance
High initial investment is an important factor that restricts the growth of process automation. High investments are required for the installation of supervisory solutions, such as MES, advanced process control (APC), DCS, and SCADA, along with devices such as process analyzer, control valves, actuators, smart sensors, and communication network. Devices such as process analyzers, smart sensors, and actuators require high installation and maintenance costs, increasing the cost for customers. Although automation offers benefits in the long run, the high initial investments prevent companies from availing complete automation. This restricts the market for system integrators in the process industry.
Opportunity: Opportunities offered by Industry 4.0 and digitization
Industry 4.0 is the transition of the technology from embedded systems to internet-connected physical systems. Cyber-physical systems (CPS) need standard protocols to communicate with each other and analyze data to predict failure. Industry 4.0 offers fast, flexible, and efficient data collection between multiple devices, thereby allowing companies to offer high-quality products at a reduced cost. The adoption of Industry 4.0 promotes the concept of CPS, thereby driving cloud computing and Internet of Things (IoT). The various technologies included in Industry 4.0 are autonomous robots, cybersecurity, Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), and augmented reality. These technologies have witnessed high adoption across industries, indicating that Industry 4.0 is a major opportunity for system integrators.
Challenge: System interoperability – a major challenge for system integrators
Currently, communication between components and the supervisory system plays a major role in establishing automation at plants. During the initial installation of the system, integrators can easily design the architecture with components that support unique communication protocols. However, during retrofits and machine upgrades, interoperability presents challenges for system integrators. The prevailing technology restricts components such as programmable automation controllers (PAC), sensors, and control valves from running autonomously without human interference. As a result, there is a growing demand for supervisory systems, such as SCADA and DCS, to monitor and control these components. Standardization of the communication protocol will allow system integrators to interconnect any device in existing architecture.
