The engineering services market is expected to benefit from steady economic growth in both developed and developing countries. Steady economic growth refers to the consistent and sustained increase in economic activity, income levels, and production over time across advanced and emerging economies. This growth supports the engineering services market by driving investments in infrastructure, industrial expansion, technological upgrades, and construction projects that require specialized engineering expertise. For example, in April 2024, according to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), a US-based financial agency, the baseline forecast indicates that the global economy is expected to grow at a rate of 3.2 percent in both 2024 and 2025, consistent with the growth rate of 2023. Advanced economies are projected to experience a slight increase in growth, rising from 1.6 percent in 2023 to 1.7 percent in 2024, and reaching 1.8 percent in 2025. Therefore, steady economic growth in developed and developing countries is contributing to the expansion of the engineering services market.

Leading companies in the engineering services market are introducing innovative products to address industry challenges. An example is Ricoh USA Inc., a US-based software company, which launched RICOH Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) Enablement in October 2023. This end-to-end managed services offering for health systems aims to streamline remote patient monitoring workflows, addressing healthcare staffing challenges amid a significant industry burnout crisis. The service supports the integration of remote patient monitoring devices into existing virtual care programs, covering inventory tracking, logistics, and device returns. This launch coincides with the healthcare industry's shift to virtual care delivery and a shortage of healthcare workers.

In June 2023, UES, a US-based engineering and consulting company, acquired Riner Engineering for an undisclosed amount, aiming to expand its geotechnical expertise. The acquisition was expected to bolster UES's capabilities in geotechnical engineering, construction materials testing, and environmental consulting. Additionally, it provided Riner Engineering with access to UES's resources and expertise, enabling the firm to extend its services and geographic reach. Riner Engineering, a US-based geotechnical engineering and construction materials testing firm, was the subject of this strategic acquisition.
