COVID-19 Impact Analysis
The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has disturbed all aspects & sections of life & society along with businesses. In the current scenario, widespread communication is possible because of the internet and hence, playing a crucial role in managing and operating businesses. The pandemic has provided a great opportunity for businesses to go digital. The circumstances have forced the companies to minimize the exposure of the worldwide supply chain by intelligent workflows. Whereas, supply chains are extremely complex as various suppliers are scattered in different geographical locations interconnecting the trade ecosystem globally.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, several regulatory authorities and governments have made it compulsory to follow the rules to maintain social distance and adopt new practices of teleworking. Hence, companies are following the new Business Continuity Plan (BCP) to proceed with their business properly and timely. Due to digitalization, companies are excessively adopting supply chain security solutions and services to protect their data from cyber attackers. The disruption in the supply chain caused by the pandemic has negatively impacted the overall growth of the supply chain security market. However, as companies are getting digitalized as an impact of the pandemic, there is expected to be a rise in the demand for supply chain security solutions.
Market Growth Factors:
The growing number of supply chain attacks & ransomware because of the pandemic
Due to the outbreak of the global pandemic, ransomware activities have increased across the world. The criminals are well aware of the seriousness of the pandemic and are taking the best use of the situation to obtain precise information from the ransom attack. Many cybercriminals are forcing organizations to deal with them by offering a huge amount of money to them.
Increase in the demand for high visibility & transparency in supply chain data and processes
Due to the continuous evolution in technologies, organizations are unable to uplift their personnel and allowing them to get knowledge, capabilities, and data that are necessary for an organization to succeed. However, the adoption of technologies such as artificial intelligence, IoT, and machine learning are offering enhanced supply chain transparency and allowing leaders to increase product excellence, introduce new products & services, and accelerate time-to-market.
Market Restraining Factor:
Low budget is restricting small & new organizations in emerging nations
The need for cybersecurity is rising in all industries at a higher rate but low budget is hampering the implementation of such solutions. Numerous IT security expertise and small start-ups are failing to implement sophisticated cybersecurity solutions to protect their IT infrastructures & networks from cybercriminals. The chief factor that is declining the adoption of the supply chain security model for small & medium-size organizations is the constrained capital funding.
Component Outlook
Based on Component, the market is segmented into Hardware, Software and Services. The companies are acting as a supplier and have a direct or indirect approach to the final item due to which, risk in software supply chain security can occur at any stage. Suppliers comprise transporters, storage facilities, and distributors coupled with the enterprises that are completely accountable for generating, improving, or changing item or system content. These risks exist at all stages and mitigation helps in increasing the security of supply chains.
Organization Size Outlook
Based on Organization Size, the market is segmented into Large Enterprises and Small & Medium Enterprises. The small and medium enterprises segment is expected to propel with a considerable growth rate over the forecast years. Small and medium enterprises prefer cloud-based solutions instead of on-premises networking solutions because it is more flexible and require less amount of investment. The implementation of supply chain management is expected to surge, owing to an increase in the implementation of the pay-as-you-go model by the small and medium enterprises through which, they can flexibly manage the IT infrastructure according to their needs.
Application Outlook
Based on Application, the market is segmented into Data Protection, Data Visibility & Governance and Others. Data protection refers to the large volume of data generated by the companies that needs to be secured and managed at rest and in motion to avoid tampering and breaches. A company completely relies on a third party or an e-commerce website while exchanging data with them and the third party also assures the company to keep their data confidential and private.
Vertical Outlook
Based on Vertical, the market is segmented into Retail & eCommerce, FMCG, Healthcare & Life Sciences, Manufacturing, Transportation & Logistics and Others. By vertical, the retail and eCommerce segment is expected to witness the maximum growth rate over the forecast years. The major targets of cybercriminals are online retail and e-commerce businesses. When attackers make these businesses their target, it leads to low website performance, the confidential data of customers gets exposed, loss in revenue, and site downtime. It has become essential for retailers to have end-to-end visibility and transparency in the whole supply chain due to growing omnichannel retailing, mobility, and e-commerce and to managing the demand in real-time.
Regional Outlook
Based on Regions, the market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Latin America, Middle East & Africa. Asia-Pacific is anticipated to emerge as a fastest-growing region over the forecast years. This region is witnessing the excessive implementation of advanced technologies. In countries like India and Indonesia, the government and private organizations are spending huge amounts on infrastructure, aiming to accelerate the movement and enhancement of infrastructure. These factors are accountable for the surge in the demand for supply chain management in this region.
