SCM Software Global Market Report 2024

The scm software market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $36.72 billion in 2023 to $43.26 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17.8%. The historical growth in the supply chain management (SCM) software sector can be ascribed to the expansion of emerging markets, a heightened demand for SCM software driven by the effects of COVID-19, and a rise in internet penetration.

The scm software market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $83.74 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.0%. The projected growth in the supply chain management (SCM) software sector can be attributed to an increasing adoption of cloud computing, the expansion of the e-commerce industry, and the cost savings facilitated by SCM software. Major trends anticipated in the forecast period include an emphasis on artificial intelligence in SCM, ongoing product innovations, a focus on integrating supply-chain technology into business operations, the implementation of sustainability solutions, the utilization of blockchain in supply chain management, the adoption of digital supply chain twin (DSCT), the integration of 5G technology, an emphasis on continuous intelligence (CI), a focus on supply chain governance and security, and an emphasis on fostering partnerships and collaborations.

SCM software plays a crucial role in managing the complexities of the modern-day supply chain, particularly as businesses expand globally and face heightened competition. The contemporary supply chains have become intricate, marked by an increase in the number of suppliers, orders, product offerings, and generated information. SCM software proves instrumental in simplifying this complexity, leading to cost and resource savings. The imperative for companies to stay relevant in the market amid intense competition serves as a pivotal driver for the growth of the SCM software market.

The anticipated increase in e-commerce is set to drive the growth of the SCM software market in the foreseeable future. E-commerce, involving online buying and selling of goods or services, relies on commercial transactions conducted through websites, mobile apps, or other online platforms. SCM software aids e-commerce companies in cost reduction by optimizing their supply chains, minimizing manufacturing, shipping, and raw material costs, ultimately resulting in reduced consumer prices. For example, in September 2022, as per the International Trade Administration, the UK's consumer eCommerce constituted 30% of the overall retail sector, experiencing significant growth from 20% in 2020, with an annual e-commerce revenue exceeding $120 billion. Thus, the increasing prominence of e-commerce is a key driver propelling the growth of the SCM software market.


Supply chains are undergoing constant evolution, with data positioned at the core of each stage in the value chain. The substantial volume of generated data presents a significant challenge in terms of data and IT security risks. Safeguarding privacy while sharing data across the supply chain emerges as a major hurdle that could potentially impede the SCM software industry. A prominent example illustrating the consequences of lax security involves the Target breach, where compromised security at an HVAC vendor led to the exposure of personal information for up to 70 million individuals. The stolen information included customer names, credit or debit card numbers, expiration dates, and CVV numbers.

Leading companies in the supply chain management software market are intensifying their focus on introducing innovative platforms to gain a competitive advantage. These platforms aim to offer a comprehensive and holistic view of supply chain operations, optimize planning and forecasting, reduce costs, prevent waste and overstocks, and align with customer demand and financial objectives. For instance, in February 2023, Sonatype, a US-based software supply chain management company, unveiled the 'Run Anywhere' platform for software supply chain management. Recognized as the most flexible software composition analysis and application security testing solution, it provides cloud deployment along with on-premises and entirely disconnected options.
