The pandemic has positively impacted the PIM hardware demand from enterprises in 2020. The PIM demand for retail is expected to increase during 2020 - 2021 due to the increased ecommerce penetration across the globe. This would provide opportunities for PIM vendors.
Globally, the e-commerce industry has been growing at a tremendous pace, owing to the rising consumer demand for products, growing Internet access, and the rising penetration of smartphones. Worldwide online sales are increasing by almost 18% every year. In countries such as Mexico, India, the Philippines, and China, the e-commerce industry is growing at a rate of more than 25%. E-commerce sites are receiving more orders from people residing in the urban areas of the countries listed above. Amazon.com Inc., Alibaba Group Holding Ltd., eBay Inc., Walmart Inc., and Target Brands Inc., among others, are the major players in the e-commerce industry. With amidst COVID-19 the spending in e-commerce is growing rapidly worldwide. With the rapidly growing e-commerce industry it is expected that the demand for PIM solution to increase during the forecast period as PIM enables to manage and edit all product information easily. PIM solution also provides a quick snapshot of products in a channel, and captures and uploads data and maps it to the customer needs while validating, enriching, and augmenting the data in real-time and automate the creation of product information using data from multiple sources to help improve product assortment and achieve faster syndication of product data across channels. Such benefits offered by PIM solution helps businesses to reduce time and offer automation to update product information on the eCommerce platform.
Security and compliance have been the primary concerns organization across globe are reluctant to adopt new solutions that involve data handling or shifting from one platform to other. PIM involve data collection and transmission from one channel to other. Synchronization and publishing of the data across channels is also involved with PIM system. Due to the lack of proper knowledge about security frameworks and their implementation, many companies generally have perception that PIM solutions might lead to data breaches in their highly abstracted data sets. Hence, company prefer vendors who can customize their existing systems to manage their product information and withstand the competition. Similarly, a few Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises (SMEs) that still want to adopt cloud-based PIM solutions withdraw their decision due privacy concerns associate with cloud. For instance, in October 2020, Pfizer suffered a data breach because of email addresses, home addresses, full names, and other HIPAA related information from unsecured cloud storage. Another, major reason that company are reluctant to adopt cloud-based solution are system integration complexities.
Organizations across various industries such as healthcare, retail, and BFSI among others have been investing and adopting new technologies such as AI and ML, in order to grow and to stay ahead of their competitors. AI-powered PIM offers, automatic classification of products, anomaly detection, enrichment processes through the selection of data from trusted sources, scoring of products, and providing contextual recommendations. AI-powered PIM solutions can generate automated insights about data issues and can create an integrated view of the data present across multiple systems, for helping customers understand their products better. Further, AI-embedded chatbots can also improve customer experience and satisfaction, resulting in enhanced revenue and profits. Similarly, ML-enabled PIM solutions helps organizations to manage compliance, drive data based digital transformation and achieve better operational efficiency by sensing any upcoming data quality issues and suggest apt solutions to improve data matching and avoid data inconsistencies. Companies such as Akenoe and IBM have started offering ML-enabled PIM solutions. During the forecast period it is expected that the demand for such product can increase which is likely to encourage new developments of PIM solutions by vendors.
Data security concerns are rising rapidly, it is very crucial to protect individual data, hence government organization and associations have created numerous regulations and guidelines across all industry verticals. Companies across industries and countries have varied regulations with which PIM companies as well as industry participant need to comply. For instance, in India, Government e-Marketplace (GeM) controlled by the Ministry of Commerce and Industry mandated for sellers to enter the Country of Origin while registering all new products on GeM. Similarly, in the US medical device manufacturers need to comply with the Global Unique Identification Database (GUID), a database administered by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for better product assortment and global identification. The scope of these regulations varies for vendors offering PIM solutions to companies across industries and different regions. Hence, adhering to the laws while ensuring that the PIM solution meets all the requirements of the companies is a big challenge for the PIM solution providers.
The adoption of PIM solutions and services is higher in large enterprises, and the trend is expected to continue during the forecast period. PIM systems offer a single centralized system, to manage products information across the sectors. Hence, large enterprises heavily invest in advanced technologies to increase their overall productivity and efficiency. The demand for flexible, scalable, and convenient services by large enterprises is expected to encourage the market players to come up with newer technologies and innovative solutions.
Vendors offer training, support and maintenance services to help in-house staff understand PIM systems. These services provide a cost-effective way to ensure performance at the highest level of in-house staff. Training, support and maintenance services are important for end users because certain companies do not have the expertise to understand the complexities involved in configuring PIM. These services play an important role in the maintenance of PIM solutions. Training, support and maintenance service providers guide companies after deployment of PIM that helps address specific business-process requirements in the most feasible manner. These services assist enterprises in making appropriate and informed decisions for gaining desired business outcomes.
