Consumer Credit Reporting Services Procurement Category Market Research Report from IBISWorld has Been Updated















Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) February 13, 2015

Consumer credit reporting services have a buyer power score of 3.4 out of 5, which reflects moderate negotiating strength for buyers. Demand for consumer credit reporting services has been rising in line with the recovering economy and growing borrowing activity by consumers. “Over the three years to 2014, buyers have continued to rely on vendors to gather and distribute historical credit information,” says IBISWorld procurement analyst Kiera Outlaw. “The ongoing need to evaluate consumer credit, coupled with easier access to credit, increasing aggregate household debt and strengthening consumer spending has been causing service prices to rise.” Prices are forecast to rise further in the three years to 2017. Although rising service prices have hurt buyers’ purchasing power, buyers have been benefiting from a low level of price volatility during the recent period.

The consumer credit reporting services market is moderately concentrated, with Equifax, Experian and TransUnion holding the majority of total market revenue due to their massive data networks and inter-bureau reporting arrangements. These major consumer credit reporting firms have also started to offer business credit reports and other related support services to expand their competitive positions. Nevertheless, the growing adoption of online credit reporting platforms has made it easier for other vendors to enter the market, including a number of specialty firms that focus on reporting nontraditional credit data. “Suppliers can obtain high profit margins in this market, presenting some opportunity for buyers to negotiate lower prices, particularly when bundling multiple services from a single supplier,” adds Outlaw.

Buyers face a mixture of risks and opportunities throughout the purchasing process. As a result, buyer negotiation power is negatively impacted by the lack of viable substitutes and switching costs that can arise due to a moderate level of service specialization. Alternatively, buyers benefit from a low total cost of ownership, short buying lead time, low supply chain risk and minimal chance of vendor default.

Pain Management Therapeutics Market Segment Upto 2018: Transparency Market Research











Transparency Market Research


Albany, New York (PRWEB) September 30, 2014

The market of pain management therapeutics aims at producing drugs to alleviate acute as well as chronic pain conditions, thus improving the quality of life of patients. Body pain affects a major portion of the global population, wherein it prevails for varying lengths of time and occurs in a variety of levels. Body pain is a major concern across the globe due its deliberating effects on work productivity.

Pain management therapeutics presently encompasses a variety of pain management therapeutics methods, such as physiotherapy, chiropractor therapy, and the use of minimally invasive pain management devices. However, analgesics or painkillers are commonly prescribed by physicians as the first line of treatment for managing body pain. Drugs from a variety of therapeutic classes, such as antidepressants, opioids, anticonvulsants, anti-migraine agents, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), and others are included in the market.

Browse Full Global Pain Management Therapeutics Market Research Report With Complete TOC @ http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/pain-management-therapeutics.html

The global demand for such drugs is very high; in the year 2011, the global pain management therapeutics market had a net worth of US$ 40.93 billion. However, patent expiries of bestselling drugs such as Pfizer, Inc.’s Lyrica (pregabalin) and Eli Lilly & Co.’s Cymbalta (duloxetine) in the near future could lead to a drastic downward trend to the global pain therapeutics market. Declining at a year-on-year rate of 5.5% in the next few years, this market could reach a net worth of US$ 29.47 billion by 2018.

Other than significant reduction in revenues, the loss of market exclusivity of these major revenue-grossing drugs will allow generic drug companies to launch their own versions of these drugs. The global pain management therapeutics market is also affected by the lack of novel drug formulations, which would further account for the declining position of this market.

Other key brands such as Lidoderm (lidocaine), OxyContin (oxycodone), and Cymbalta (duloxetine) are scheduled to lose patent exclusivity in 2013, adding to the negative impact on the growth of the global pain management therapeutics market. However, the market will continue to cater to a large portion of its end users through the segment of OTC drugs, triggered at common body pain conditions.


Segmentation

Amongst the various drug segments covered by the pain management therapeutics market, the segment of NSAIDs is the major revenue generator of the market. Owing to the presence of most popular over the counter painkillers such as ibuprofen, aspirin and diclofenac in this class of drugs, NSAIDs grossed the maximum industry shares of the global pain management therapeutics market in 2011.

By indication, the segments of neuropathic pain and cancer pain earned the leading positions in the global pain management therapeutics market. The major reason behind this is the rising prevalence of conditions such as diabetes and cancer across the globe. As compared to branded formulations, the demand for generic drugs was high in the overall pain management therapeutics market in 2011.

North America stood as the largest regional market of the global pain management therapeutics market due to the presence of one or more branded drugs in the market. However, patent expiries of these brands could suppress growth of this regional market in the near future.

The market for branded drugs was observed to be highly fragmented in the same year, with big companies such as Eli Lilly & Co., Purdue Pharma LP, and Pfizer amassing nearly 80% shares of the total market revenues.

For further inquiries, ask here: http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/sample/sample.php?flag=S&rep_id=1059

Foreword

Though the market is estimated to go through a phase of significant slowdown in the next few years, some favorable healthcare and regulatory reforms such as the U.S. Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010, and the economic nature of these drugs will continue to drive uptake in the pain management therapeutics market. These drugs are also found to have better effect on body pain than other therapeutic modes such as acupuncture and neurostimulation devices.

Construction Machinery Industry In China, 2014-2018: Worldwide Industry Share, Investment Trends, Growth, Size, Strategy and Forecast Research Report












(PRWEB) April 19, 2014

In 2013, China’s GDP increased by 7.7% YOY. According to IMF, the growth rate of global economy was merely 3%. China remains one of the fastest growing countries in terms of GDP and resident income in recent years. The GDP per capita was approximately USD 6,600 in 2013, far behind that of developed countries. Therefore, Chinese economy shows great potential for growth.

Browse full report with TOC: http://www.marketresearchreports.biz/analysis-details/research-report-on-construction-machinery-industry-in-china-2014-2018.

In 2013, the investment in fixed assets was CNY 44.7074 trillion in China, up by 19.3% YOY. The rapid growth stimulates demand for construction machinery. Consequently, as the global production and demand transfer, China becomes an important market and the manufacturing center of construction machinery with most of the market seized by the foreign-funded enterprises.

In 2013, the sales revenue of construction machinery industry surpassed CNY 600 billion in China, up by over 10% YOY.

The sales revenue of top 50 enterprises accounted for over 80% of the industry while that of XCMG exceeded CNY 100 billion. The annual sales revenue of over 10 manufacturers of construction machinery, including foreign-funded enterprises, surpassed CNY 10 billion.

Investment and M&A remained as the main trend of the industry due to high expectation of market demand. It is noteworthy that Chinese manufacturers of construction machinery are expanding business overseas. Certain Chinese manufacturers with strong competitiveness expand export and operate internationally through M&A and joint ventures. For instance, Weichai Power Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Shandong Heavy Industry Group, purchased shares of KION Group. Liugong Machinery (Poland) sp. z o. o. signed Conditional Acquisition Contract with the asset custody side of ZZN Transmission Plant in Stalowa Wola, Poland. SANY GROUP purchased the remaining 10% shares of Putzmeister and became its 100% shareholder.

Chinese government is determined to maintain economic growth through structure adjustment and reform instead of investment in fixed assets under the pressure of economy slowdown. The measures are proved to be effective in terms of urbanization. It once referred to an influx of rural migrants to cities that resulted in urban traffic congestion and increasing crime rate. However, current urbanization policies attempt to absorb surplus rural labors through synchronized development of small towns and medium to large cities. The number of small towns is approximately 20,000 in China. It is estimated that new urbanization infrastructure will stimulate demand of CNY 0.4-0.5 million for investment in fixed assets in the next 10 years. Decline of the governmental investment will make room for non-state-owned capital. The annual growth rate of investment in fixed assets like transportation, infrastructure and real estate is expected to surpass 15% in the coming years.

In 2014-2018, demand for construction machinery is estimated to increase outstandingly and create many opportunities for manufacturers at home and abroad.

http://www.marketresearchreports.biz/analysis-details/dna-diagnostics-market-global-industry-analysis-size-share-growth-trends-and-forecast-2013-2019

The completion of human genome project resulted in discovery of several human disease causing genes. This discovery has further led to the evolution of DNA diagnostic platforms and resulted in the transformation of DNA diagnostics platforms from a research based activity into a major professional or commercial activity. The transformation is majorly attributed to the rapid pace of technological advances followed by development of robust methodologies such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR), microarrays, novel gene sequencing and others. DNA based diagnostic methods facilitate the mutation detection, identification of disease causing genes, diagnosis of monogenic disorders, etc. In addition, these platforms are employed in prenatal diagnosis to determine mutations and genetic disorders and also is used in the preimplantation diagnosis. Preimplantation diagnosis involves the detection of mutation in the 8 cell stage embryo before implantation and is possible due to development of combined technologies such as in vitro fertilization (IVF), PCR and Fluorescent In Situ Hybridization (FISH). All these aforementioned factors prove that DNA diagnostics market holds immense growth potential in the near future.

Temporary Staff Services in Australia Industry Market Research Report Now Updated by IBISWorld











IBISWorld Market Research


Melbourne, Australia (PRWEB) April 08, 2014

Prior to the global financial crisis, the Temporary Staff Services industry benefited from an outsourcing trend, a strong economy with low unemployment and a strong appetite for labour from the Mining division amid booming commodities prices. According to IBISWorld industry analyst Alen Allday, “while the industry was flat in 2008-09, it suffered in 2009-10 due to rising unemployment and weaker demand for new temporary labour positions.” However, the Australian economy weathered the global downturn relatively well as growth in the housing sector stabilised and mining output strongly increased. Many other sectors within the economy returned to growth, fuelling demand for new staff and industry services. Industry revenue returned to growth in 2010-11 as economic growth drove demand for temporary staff. A weaker Mining division and economic uncertainty in 2012-13 and 2013-14 led to industry revenue declines for these years.

In the five years through 2013-14, industry revenue is expected to increase at an annualised 0.5% to $ 18.5 billion. This includes a forecast decline of 3.5% in 2013-14. “The low revenue growth of the past five years has been accompanied by low profit margins and industry employment declines,” says Allday. However, enterprise numbers have increased at due to the low barriers to entry. The industry exhibits a low level of market share concentration, with Skilled Group Limited the only player holding a significant share of industry revenue.

Employment outsourcing has become well established in Australia over the past two decades. As a result, temporary staff services are expected to grow only modestly over the next five years. This is also due to the mature nature of the industry. The mining and energy sectors are expected to remain key growth drivers for the industry, despite weaker global growth hindering commodity demand and causing prices to decline. Further, with the Mining division being a relatively small employing sector, its growth will only have a limited effect on the Temporary Staff Services industry.

Global EPS Supply to Exceed 7.97 Million Tonnes in 2016, According to In-demand Report by Merchant Research & Consulting











http://marketpublishers.com/

London, UK (PRWEB) March 04, 2014

During 2010-2012, the global expandable polystyrene (EPS) production witnessed sustained growth, increasing from about 5.83 millon tonnes in 2010 to more than 6.33 million tonnes in 2012. In 2012, Asia ranked number one worldwide in terms of EPS production, with the regional production volume being estimated at over 3.87 million tonnes.

Albany, NY (PRWEB) November 30, 2013

In-Depth Research and Prospects of China Automotive Navigation Industry, 2013-2017

China serves as the world’s largest country in terms of automobile production and sales, however, the assembly rate (take passenger cars as cardinal number) of navigators for new cars was only 8.6% in 2012, and there was a substantial growth potential. By the end of 2012, there were about 300 automotive navigation manufacturing enterprises in China, and the market scale was worth CNY33.8 million, year-on-year growth of 10%. It is expected that market scale of China automotive navigation will reach CNY 67.4 billion as of 2017.

To check out the complete table of contents, visit: http://www.marketresearchreports.biz/analysis-details/in-depth-research-and-prospects-of-china-automotive-navigation-industry-2013-2017.

In 2012, the sales volume of aftermarket automotive navigators generated 6.38 million sets in China, year-on-year growth of 17%, but growth rate continued to decline. At the same period, the sales volume of pre-installed automotive navigators reached 1.29 million sets, while the growth rate reached 43%, and this was the second year in a row that growth rate registered above 40%. The growth rate of aftermarket and the growth rate of pre-installed market displayed a negative correction, which will change future automotive navigation market. As of 2015, the market shares of China’s pre-installed automotive navigators will reach 31.6% from 16.7% at present. In the same period, market penetration rate of pre-installed automotive navigators also will register around 20%.

Chinese navigation market was influenced by Japan. As for product forms, Japan and China both mainly produce In-Dash products. Since 2006, PND products have witnessed rapid development, however, the development of PND products lacked in strength on account of copycat products disrupting the market. Currently, aftermarket automotive navigation is the most vigorous segment in China with most output value. In 2012, the shipments of China aftermarket automotive navigation market roughly generated 6.624 million sets, which nearly equating to 6.5 times more than that of pre-installed automotive navigation market.

Meanwhile, China’s GPS navigators witnessed vigorous development. Mobile phone manufacturers and operators and online application stores promote and sell mobile navigation products. Currently, taking the most eye-catching Apple App stores for an example, Careland and Autonavi were among the top ten fast selling applications in China throughout the year.

Automobiles to be equipped with GPS navigations that serve as standard configuration have represented an irresistible trend. The popularizing rate of GPS in American automobiles comprised 65%, and the rate was higher in EU countries and Japan, registering 73% and 76% respectively. By comparison, the popularizing rate of auto GPS was less than 10% in China. Although this rate reflects a huge gap between China and developed countries, however, with the increasing vehicle population, cars have become the needed products in many Chinese families, and GPS serves as an important component in vehicles, thus the popularizing rate grow rapidly, which brought commercial opportunities for GPS market.

Carrier LTE Application Strategies to Combat OTT Players and Services: http://www.marketresearchreports.biz/analysis-details/carrier-lte-application-strategies-to-combat-ott-players-and-services

Over-the-Top (OTT) applications are those that are provided via the Internet in which only a data connection is required. The wireless carrier is not directly involved and only recognized indirect revenue due to data usage. OTT players and applications have grown to become a significant threat to core services for network operators, most notably voice and messaging. Carriers do not discriminate what is being carried over the data channel and are satisfied (from a data service revenue perspective) to just sign up as many data users as possible.

LTE brings rather significant capacity gains to the mobile networks, which translates into more bandwidth to offer, more subscriptions to sell, more data consumed, and more data revenue for the carriers. On the demand side, bear services, particularly data, continues to grow at a healthy pace, but there are limits to growth in bearer service for consumer and even enterprise usage. In addition, there is an increasing awareness of Internet Protocol (IP) being cheap source of transport, and hence more people becoming aware of VoIP, and therefore OTT alternatives.

There is a big migration underway from traditional voice to data. This is not to mean that voice goes away in favor of only non-voice services. What this really means is that traditional circuit-switched (bearer) is going away, and eventually with it, traditional voice calling plans. With this evolution of bearer services becoming marginalized, the payload itself becomes the value and the simple carriage of data becomes a marginalized commodity. With this development, Value-added Service (VAS) applications become much more important to the network operators. Carriers can either sit idly by while this happens or take proactive action. We recommend the latter.

This research evaluates the OTT threat to wireless carriers and provides specific strategies and recommendations to compete and win in the marketplace. The report evaluates the general market drivers for VAS applications and the competitive factors issues relative to OTT player offerings. The report includes analysis of LTE enabled application benefits and challenges and presents an application roadmap.

ABI Research: Skyfire’s Rocket Optimizer a ‘Compelling Argument’ to Begin Network Functions Virtualization












Mountain View, CA (PRWEB) October 29, 2013

Cloud-based mobile video-optimization provider Skyfire has announced that leading technology market intelligence company ABI Research has commended its Rocket Optimizer mobile video optimization solution. In particular, ABI praised Rocket Optimizer’s abilities to pave the way to Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) and Software Defined Networking (SDN) mobile infrastructure; and efficiently process high, and unpredictable, subscriber demand for mobile video.

“Independently of the way it is deployed in the network, Rocket Optimizer presents a very compelling argument for operators of all sizes to begin the path towards the mobile network of tomorrow,” wrote Joe Hoffman, Research Director of ABI Research. “It delivers all the key elements an operator needs to take its first steps towards an NFV and SDN future. Moreover, Skyfire is well positioned with Rocket Optimizer, and its Experience Assurance and CloudBurst features, to help operators satisfy appetite for mobile video and derive a profit from it.”

Rocket Optimizer is a unique cloud-based mobile network solution that can dynamically and instantly optimize any type of video and other high-bandwidth multimedia. It can deliver a 60 per cent boost in bandwidth capacity while preserving the highest visual quality. Its Experience Assurance technology allow operators to measure, quantify and mitigate congestion in real time, without the installation of legacy inline appliance hardware or RAN probes in the network, while its CloudBurst technology lets operators instantly expand their optimization capacity to handle planned AND unplanned spikes in network traffic.

In the recently published research note, ABI identifies Rocket Optimizer as a low-risk path to mobile network virtualization, leveraging elements of NFV and preparing for evolution to SDN. Rocket Optimizer currently works with SDN-based steering vendors, which leverage SDN to define traffic routing and network functions on commodity hardware servers. Rocket Optimizer uses SDN’s programmable routers to identify and route large video, streaming audio and image traffic to the cloud for optimization and successful and instantaneous delivery.

Mobile operators embracing NFV will likely opt for a low-risk step-by-step network adoption. Initially, operators can prove the viability of individual virtualized functions now, such as the traditional in-network function of data and media optimization and traffic shaping. Skyfire’s Rocket Optimizer is NFV-ready now, and it makes for a robust and compelling use case for operators looking for immediate cost, flexibility and user experience benefits from a virtualized cloud.

Moreover, video and multimedia optimization in the cloud is possible when intelligent routing and steering partners are already present in the network, and Skyfire cooperates with these to deliver bandwidth capacity boosts across all devices. Skyfire’s Rocket Optimizer can be an all-important first step in implementing robust, cost-saving, capacity-boosting services in NFV architecture.

The ABI research note on Skyfire’s Rocket Optimizer can be downloaded here.
