With increasing investments in market intelligence, do industry experts think that the time and resources they have put into such services have been useful? If so, how efficient is market intelligence for opportunity assessment in the industrial and manufacturing sector?
For strategy & business development stakeholders looking to develop effective market entry strategies for their products and services, keeping track of their key competitors and the state of the industry becomes crucial for expanding their businesses to niche markets. Traditionally, this practice has been defined as “market intelligence.” However, at present, the practice of collecting market intelligence has also expanded to include analytics and analysis, as they help in improving the business model of industrial and manufacturing companies. At its core, market intelligence services utilize numerous sources of information to create a broader picture of the company’s existing market space, customers, problems, competition, and growth potential for new products and services. Primary sources of raw data for such an analysis include surveys, sales logs, and social media.
In a recent global market intelligence survey, it was found that in a ranking of 20 industries including healthcare, media, consumer, IT, etc., the manufacturing and industrial sector ranked 14th in terms of its market intelligence capabilities. In our webinar, which included a 15-minute Q&A session, on how to leverage market intelligence to tap opportunities, our speakers focused on the best practices of procuring effective market intelligence services for key stakeholders in the industrial and manufacturing sector. According to Infiniti’s industrial experts, the current market is plagued by uncertainties, both globally and regionally.
