Growth Factors in the North America Testing and Commissioning Market

Infrastructure Development:

There is robust infrastructure development across the spectrum of construction, energy, and transportation in North America e.g., major infrastructure projects are being planned, approved and expanded including renewable energy – previously built and established transportation systems and urban transit projects being built and expanded – wide-ranging infrastructure projects (including the renewed focus on cycling) encompass everything from recreation trails to transit systems and high-speed rail – every project will have comprehensively ensured commissioning and testing of new systems to ensure safety and maximum efficiency. For example, the development of new high-speed rail networks in the US will include thoroughly testing and commissioning to verify the new systems perform as intended prior to being open to the public – this push for infrastructure development and vastly increased systems, both new and existing civil infrastructure systems, is fostering economic growth through urbanization and increased population density, and establishes a steady demand in testing services to verify that compliant systems are safe, reliable and operational.

Stringent Regulatory Standards:

Regulatory compliance is a significant driver for the testing and commissioning market in North America. Governments and industry agencies implement a strict level of standards in sectors such as healthcare, energy, and manufacturing to protect the public, uphold product safety, and protect the environment. For instance, in North America, the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has mandatory testing and commissioning requirements for electrical systems within industrial plants to mitigate unsafe workplace environments. Thus employers must have testing and commissioning services to comply with mandated standards and to avoid significant fines while protecting the public. The regulatory burden will drive up companies’ expenses thus putting pressure on companies to get professional testing and commissioning services forcing compliance with regulatory standards and promoting significant revenue growth across all sectors.

Focus on Energy Efficiency:

As energy efficiency and sustainability become increasingly important, the world of testing and commissioning is seeing unprecedented demand. There are real concerns about climate change that are leading industries to create energy efficient systems and create energy-efficient products, and this is particularly true for new renewable energy projects, such as solar farms and wind farms. For example, a recent solar project in California required substantial commissioning in order to maximize the output of energy production and ensure compatibility with the grid. The testing services being provided ensured that these systems were up and running, were efficient, and minimized carbon footprints and operational costs. The greatest reason for the increased demand for testing and commissioning services has been the increasing emphasis on sustainability for public companies and how commissioning processes can assist those businesses with initiatives to operate sustainably, but also meet the expectations of their consumers to operate sustainably.

Key Trends in the North America Testing and Commissioning Market

Outsourcing of Testing Services:

An important trend in the North America testing and commissioning market is the growing trend of organizations outsourcing testing and commissioning to third-party firms. Organizations want to push testing and commissioning out of in-house operations and leverage using an outside organization to save money and reach subject matter experts. For example, a well-known oil and gas company in Texas exercised the right to outsource the testing of a pipeline to a third-party provider for compliance under federal regulation and the organization focused on its pipeline operations. This trend is transforming how the market operates, as companies take advantage of efficiencies and seasoned staff with testing and commissioning experience and/or technology efficiencies. Companies are always going to seek a least-cost option and they need to take full advantage of third parties when commodity prices are subjected to stringent industry requirements.

Technological Advancements:

Technological advancements like the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), and automation are revolutionizing how testing and commissioning is done in industry in terms of precision and efficiency of work processes. For example, in the commissioning of data centers, IoT-enabled sensors are utilized to measure real-time performance indicators to maintain optimal operation along with AI-driven analytics monitors system status and helps determine unnecessary equipment failure before it happens and reduce downtime. Companies that utilize these technologies can contend with tests in a faster and more accurate manner, increasing system reliability. This trend is promoting growth across the market. Enhanced testing, commissioning, and maintenance have become necessary to account for rapidly evolving systems, including implicitly complex and interconnected systems within energy and IT environments.

Emphasis on Safety and Risk Management:

Given the human value of protecting critical infrastructure, safety and risk management has become the focal point of the commissioning and testing market. The construction and manufacturing industries have always put testing first in order to eliminate risk related to electrical failure or structural failure. For example, during the commissioning of the fire protection systems in a New York City high-rise, meticulous testing confirmed compliance with prevailing safety codes that helped mitigate a potential disaster. This commitment to safety is causing companies to invest heavily in testing services that contribute to an efficient structure of identifying hazards before operations begin, ensure that process reliability is sustained, protect the health and safety of the individual and the major significance of testing within a future operating market where safety can take on far greater importance.
