AaaS(Automation as a Service) 시장 예측(-2030년) : 자동화 유형별, 제공별, 전개 방식별, 비즈니스 기능별, 기업 규모별, 최종사용자별, 지역별 세계 분석

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Automation as a Service Market is accounted for $9.8 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach $40.1 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 26.3% during the forecast period. Automation as a Service (AaaS) is a cloud-based delivery model that provides businesses with on-demand access to automation technologies and solutions. It enables organizations to streamline operations, reduce costs, and improve efficiency without the need for significant upfront investments in infrastructure or expertise. AaaS typically includes robotic process automation (RPA), artificial intelligence, and machine learning capabilities. It allows companies to automate repetitive tasks, workflows, and processes across various business functions, scaling their automation efforts as needed. This model offers flexibility, rapid deployment, and the ability to focus on core business activities while leveraging advanced automation technologies.

According to IDC's forecast from March 2023, global spending on artificial intelligence (AI), including software, hardware, and services for AI-centric systems, is expected to reach $154 billion in 2023, an increase of 26.9% over the amount spent in 2022.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Increased demand for automation

Organizations are increasingly recognizing the benefits of automation in improving efficiency, reducing operational costs, and enhancing productivity. AaaS offers a flexible and scalable solution that allows businesses to implement automation without significant upfront investments in infrastructure and expertise. The rise of digital transformation initiatives and the need for streamlined processes in a competitive business environment further fuel this demand. Additionally, the shortage of skilled labor in many sectors is pushing companies to adopt automation solutions, making AaaS an attractive option for businesses of all sizes to quickly implement and benefit from automation technologies.

Restraint:

High initial setup costs

Implementing automation solutions often requires significant investment in integration, customization, and training. Organizations may need to modify existing processes and systems to accommodate new automation tools, which can be time-consuming and expensive. The complexity of integrating AaaS with legacy systems and the potential need for specialized skills during implementation can further increase costs. Small and medium-sized enterprises, in particular, may find these initial expenses challenging, potentially slowing adoption rates. Additionally, the perceived risk of disruption to existing operations during the transition to automated processes can make some organizations hesitant to invest, despite the long-term benefits.

Opportunity:

Integration of AI and machine learning

AI and ML technologies can enhance the capabilities of automation solutions, enabling more complex and intelligent automated processes. This integration allows for adaptive and self-improving systems that can handle increasingly sophisticated tasks, expanding the potential applications of AaaS across various industries. AI-powered automation can offer predictive analytics, natural language processing, and cognitive capabilities, opening up new use cases in customer service, decision-making, and data analysis. The combination of AI, ML, and automation can lead to the development of more advanced and valuable service offerings, attracting a broader range of customers and driving innovation in the AaaS market.

Threat:

Changes in data privacy regulations

As automated processes often handle sensitive data, compliance with stringent data protection laws like GDPR, CCPA, and others becomes crucial. Changes in these regulations can necessitate substantial modifications to existing automation systems, potentially disrupting services and increasing costs for both providers and users. The complexity of ensuring compliance across different jurisdictions can be challenging, especially for global operations. Concerns about data security and privacy may make some organizations hesitant to adopt cloud-based automation services. Additionally, the potential for hefty fines and reputational damage due to non-compliance can create uncertainty in the market, potentially slowing adoption rates and requiring continuous investment in compliance measures by AaaS providers.

Covid-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the adoption of automation as a service solutions. As businesses sought to maintain operations with reduced on-site staff, AaaS provided a means to automate critical processes remotely. The crisis highlighted the importance of digital transformation and operational resilience, driving increased interest in automation technologies. While some sectors initially delayed investments due to economic uncertainty, the long-term impact has been a growing recognition of AaaS as a key tool for business continuity and efficiency.

The robotic process automation (RPA) segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The robotic process automation (RPA) segment is anticipated to dominate the automation as a service market due to its wide applicability across various industries and business functions. RPA offers significant benefits in automating repetitive, rule-based tasks, leading to improved efficiency, accuracy, and cost savings. Its ability to integrate with existing systems without major infrastructure changes makes it an attractive option for businesses of all sizes. The scalability and flexibility of RPA as a service allow organizations to quickly deploy and adapt automation solutions to their changing needs. Additionally, the continuous advancements in RPA technology, including the integration of AI and machine learning capabilities, are expanding its potential applications, further driving its adoption and market growth.

The small and medium enterprises (SMEs) segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The small and medium enterprises (SMEs) segment is projected to experience the highest CAGR in the automation as a service market. AaaS offers SMEs access to advanced automation technologies without the need for significant upfront investments in infrastructure and expertise. This democratization of automation enables smaller businesses to compete more effectively with larger enterprises by improving efficiency and productivity. The scalability and flexibility of AaaS solutions are particularly attractive to SMEs, allowing them to start small and expand their automation capabilities as needed. Additionally, the growing awareness among SMEs about the benefits of digital transformation and the pressure to optimize operations in a competitive market are driving rapid adoption.

Region with largest share:

The North American region is anticipated to be the largest during the forecast period. The region has a high concentration of technology companies and early adopters of automation solutions, driving innovation and market growth. Strong digital infrastructure and a culture of technological advancement support the rapid implementation of AaaS across various industries. The presence of major AaaS providers and a robust ecosystem of startups and service partners contribute to market leadership. Additionally, the region's focus on improving operational efficiency and reducing labor costs in sectors like healthcare, finance, and manufacturing fuels the demand for automation solutions.

Region with highest CAGR:

The Asia Pacific region is expected to witness the highest CAGR in the automation as a service market due to rapid digitalization across industries, coupled with government initiatives promoting digital transformation, which is driving the adoption of automation solutions. The region's large and growing SME sector is increasingly recognizing the benefits of AaaS in improving competitiveness and efficiency. Countries like China, India, and Japan are investing heavily in technologies such as AI and IoT, which complement and enhance AaaS offerings. Additionally, the region's diverse economic landscape presents opportunities for tailored AaaS offerings across various sectors, contributing to the high growth rate in the Asia Pacific market.
