Increased adoption of MPS by SMEs

Governments have identified that SMEs play a crucial role in contributing to economic growth. As a result, governments are offering incentives, including favorable tax benefits and better access to loans, special audit programs, and others to SMEs to help them remain in business. Furthermore, with the increased digitalization, SMEs are deploying new software and hardware to streamline their operations and minimize operational expenditure. To further enhance operations, SMEs are focusing on reducing the printing cost and optimizing resources properly by using MPS. These factors are contributing to significant growth of vendors, which is fueling the development of the global managed print services market. The market is expected to record a CAGR of nearly 5% during 2019-2023.

Integration of AI into the print industry

Vendors are innovating to expand their customer base. With the advent of technologies such as AI and machine learning (ML), vendors are building AI-enabled products. These products have reduced human intervention and increased efficiency. The need to create a sustainable ecosystem has given rise to the establishment of a circular economy, which involves recycling and re-use of products. Moreover, ML combined with AI solution provides network-level behavior analytics and real-time glitch detection, which helps facilitates self-monitoring and self-healing in printing devices by analyzing real-time attack from AI breaches. This trend will augment business opportunities for vendors. Therefore, the trend is expected to have a positive impact on the overall managed print services market growth during the forecast period.
