Market Size Estimation

Multiple approaches were adopted to estimate and forecast the DAM market. The first approach involved estimating the market size based on companies’ revenue from the sale of DAM products

Market Size Estimation Methodology: Top-down Approach
The top-down approach prepared an exhaustive list of all the vendors offering products in the digital asset management (DAM) market. The revenue contribution of the market vendors was estimated through annual reports, press releases, funding, investor presentations, paid databases, and primary interviews. Each vendor’s offerings were evaluated based on offering, asset type, deployment mode, organization size, vertical, and region. The markets were triangulated through primary and secondary research. The primary procedure included extensive interviews with industry leaders, including CIOs, CEOs, VPs, directors, and marketing executives, to obtain key insights. The market numbers were further triangulated with the existing MarketsandMarkets’ repository for validation.

Market Size Estimation Methodology: Bottom-up Approach
The bottom-up approach identified the adoption rate of digital asset management solutions across different verticals in key countries, considering the regions that contribute the most to the market share. For cross-validation, the adoption of DAM products among enterprises and other use cases for their regions was identified and extrapolated. Use cases identified in different areas were weighed for the market size calculation.

Based on the market numbers, the regional split was determined by primary and secondary sources. The procedure included an analysis of the digital asset management market’s regional penetration. Based on secondary research, the regional spending on information technology (IT), content management, digital marketing, and enterprise content operations, strategic vendor analysis of major digital asset management providers, and organic and inorganic business development activities of regional and global players were estimated.

Data Triangulation

After determining the overall market size using the market size estimation processes as explained above, the market was split into several segments and subsegments. Data triangulation and market breakup procedures were employed, wherever applicable, to complete the overall market engineering process and arrive at the exact statistics of each market segment and subsegment. The overall market size was then used in the top-down approach to estimate the size of other individual markets by applying percentage splits to the market segmentation.
