Maintenance Repair and Operations Global Market Report 2024

The maintenance repair and operations market has grown steadily in recent years. It will grow from $681.85 billion in 2023 to $704.79 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.4%. The expansion observed in the historical period can be attributed to factors such as industrialization and manufacturing growth, the emphasis on equipment lifecycle management, adherence to regulatory compliance, a focus on asset reliability and availability, and the implementation of preventive maintenance practices.

The maintenance repair and operations market is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $794.22 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.0%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to a heightened focus on worker safety, the adoption of predictive and prescriptive maintenance strategies, an emphasis on resilience planning and risk mitigation, the utilization of mobile solutions for field maintenance, and the increasing prominence of e-commerce platforms. Key trends in the forecast period encompass the integration of digitalization and Industry 4.0, strategic management of spare parts, customization of MRO solutions, the implementation of collaborative robotics and automation, and the reliance on data-driven decision-making.

The anticipated surge in infrastructure development investments is poised to drive the expansion of the maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) market. Infrastructure development encompasses the comprehensive process of planning, designing, financing, constructing, and sustaining physical and organizational structures crucial for societal and economic functionality. MRO services play a pivotal role in the effective management and upkeep of infrastructure assets, including buildings, bridges, roads, and utilities. This ensures their prolonged lifespan and reliability, thereby mitigating the need for costly replacements through routine maintenance. For example, as reported by the World Bank, a leading U.S.-based international financial institution, April 2023 witnessed a sustained recovery in infrastructure investments within low- and middle-income countries during 2022. Private participation in infrastructure (PPI) investments exhibited a noteworthy 23% increase compared to 2021, reaching $91.7 billion across 263 projects. Consequently, the escalating investments in infrastructure development are expected to fuel the growth trajectory of the maintenance, repair, and operations market.

The growth of the maintenance, repair, and operations market is further underlined by the increasing demand in the manufacturing industry. As a vital sector involved in the transformation of raw materials into finished products, the manufacturing industry benefits significantly from effective MRO practices. These practices contribute to increased reliability, cost savings, improved safety, and overall operational efficiency. A report by the United Nations Industrial Development Organization notes a substantial 9.4% rise in global manufacturing production in 2021. This surge in demand within the manufacturing industry serves as a driving force for the maintenance, repair, and operations market.

A key trend in the maintenance, repair, and operations market is the adoption of technological advancements. Major market players are incorporating new technologies to maintain their competitive positions. For instance, Henkel AG & Co. KGaA introduced the Loctite Pulse Smart Steam Trap digital system, a data-enabled technology designed to monitor industrial steam systems digitally. Equipped with intelligent analytics and sensors, this innovation predicts energy losses and detects early-stage malfunctions, enhancing productivity, safety, and overall efficiency.

Innovative products such as Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) capabilities are a strategic focus for major companies operating in the maintenance, repair, and operations market. MRO services, which encompass maintaining and extending the life of various equipment, are integral for preventing breakdowns. An example is the launch of MRO capability by Bell Textron Inc. This all-encompassing service meets the growing customer care needs and positions Bell Textron Canada as a one-stop shop for maintenance, repair, and overhaul requirements in the aerospace sector.

In July 2021, Spirit AeroSystems Holdings' acquisition of Applied Aerodynamics enhances its MRO capabilities, particularly in North America, and contributes to its global MRO services. Applied Aerodynamics, a service provider specializing in aircraft maintenance, repair, and overhaul, aligns with Spirit AeroSystems Holdings' goal of expanding its maintenance, repair, and operations footprint.
