Building management systems market worth £352m
A new report on the building management systems market says the market – at manufacturers’ selling prices – was worth £352m in 2003 and forecasts it will reach £386m by 2007.
Among other factors, AMA Research says the recently subdued market was down to relatively stable conditions in the overall construction market –and because the concept of 'energy efficiency' has not met expectations in motivating the market. However, it says tougher legislation may have the desired effect.
Priced at £565, AMA claims the report is invaluable to sales and marketing people in the industry, containing analysis of market size and trends, key market influences, product segmentation, application mix and key suppliers.
