Why Is This Important?

The engineering services market is unique because it encompasses multiple markets across various verticals and geographies, each with its own growth and moderation cycles.

To make informed decisions, engineering executives and investors need timely information and data-driven insights. These insights allow them to leverage these cycles, benchmark performance, plan operations, and make strategic investments.

This is especially crucial now. After experiencing hypergrowth over the past three years, the engineering services industry is beginning to face challenges in certain verticals and regions. At the same time, some verticals and geographies are performing better than before.

Sometimes these changes are fads or quarterly blips, and other times they could be the start of a medium-term trend. It is a good idea to track these vertical and regional growth dynamics regularly and consistently. Insight is power!
