Batch Management Software Market - Forecasts from 2018 to 2023

The batch management software market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.44% during the forecast period of 2017 to 2023. Batch management, as the name suggests is the process of managing batch. It is employed in the identification of one lot of production from the other owing to the unique characteristics of the lot. Moreover, batch management software is used to track the lots in the course of their lifecycle or if any complaint or recall issue arises, aids in search of items and helps in deciding which batch would fit a specific requirement. Batch management software helps to schedule, initialize, allocate and coordinate the processing of batches through control system with operator runtime clients as interface and direct functions like material consumption, batch activity and production records to historical database for effective management. Certain alarms and events corresponded with a specific batch are generated in order to notify operators or commence the automated workflow.

Market Outlook

Batch management software allows reduction of the time as well as speed required to market the product which is critical for various industries. Many production facilities have little automation or no automation procedures and are predominantly operated manually. The increased need for standard solutions across global production facilities with improved technology and better user-friendly tools drives the global market for batch management software. Moreover, enhanced demand for better production coupled with a key focus on quality also contributes to the market growth. However, significant maintenance costs is a key impediment to the adoption of these solutions. Also, lack of availability of a skilled workforce to handle critical operations related to the software negatively impacts the market growth.

Geographic Outlook

Geographically, Asia Pacific region is expected to be one of the major batch management software market segments on account of the expansion of various industries such as chemical, food & beverage and healthcare among others in the region. Countries like China and India are witnessing rapid development due to the strengthening economy, thus unleashing ample opportunities for the software vendors. Moreover, developed economies such as the US focuses primarily on batch management software in the place of traditional solutions due to a strong growth in consumer goods and durables market.
