Major trends in the forecast period include adoption of gnss-based control systems, growth of automation in construction, integration of machine guidance software, demand for precision earthmoving, expansion of smart infrastructure projects.

Rising urbanization is expected to drive the growth of the machine control system market in the coming years. Urbanization refers to the process in which increasing numbers of people move from rural areas to urban centers, resulting in a higher proportion of the population living in towns and cities. As urbanization continues to shape global development, machine control systems are expected to play a critical role in addressing the challenges of expanding populations, infrastructure needs, and environmental concerns by improving efficiency and sustainability in sectors such as construction, transportation, and agriculture. For example, in November 2025, the United Nations, a US-based intergovernmental organization, reported that cities now house 45 percent of the global population of 8.2 billion, highlighting the growing trend of urbanization and its impact on the machine control system market.

Prominent companies within the machine control system market are directing their efforts towards product launches, notably autonomous control AI services compatible with edge controllers. An autonomous control AI service denotes a system or application utilizing artificial intelligence to independently manage and execute tasks without constant human intervention. For instance, in February 2023, Yokogawa Electric Corporation, a Japan-based multinational specializing in electrical engineering and software, unveiled the OpreX Realtime OS-based Machine Controllers (e-RT3 Plus), featuring a reinforcement learning service. This service streamlines AI model creation for non-experts, offers retrofit capabilities for edge controllers, supports ultra-short control cycles, and extends autonomous control beyond PID capabilities. This innovative product significantly enhances efficiency, productivity, and energy conservation in industrial processes. It provides customers with a streamlined solution that addresses previous limitations of manual control, thereby exerting a notable impact on the machine control system market.

In April 2023, Honeywell International Inc., a prominent US-based multinational engineering and technology firm renowned for innovating and producing various technologies, acquired Compressor Controls Corporation for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition holds substantial importance in the machine control system market, bolstering Honeywell's position as a leader in industrial control, automation, and process solutions. The acquisition empowers customers to expedite their energy transition initiatives. Compressor Controls Corporation (CCC), headquartered in the US, specializes in delivering advanced turbomachinery control and optimization solutions tailored for the oil and gas industries.
