The growth of the market can be attributed to the continued adoption of work-from-home and remote working practices, which has gained traction in the wake of the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic and has triggered the demand for high-end servers, storage devices, switches, routers, and other computing devices. The growth can also be attributed to the fact that remote working and work-from-home trends are expected to evolve as a new norm over the next few years.
The strong emphasis of Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) on outsourcing electronics manufacturing to focus more on their core competencies is also expected to emerge as a long-term factor contributing to the market growth over the forecast period.The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic prompted several governments in Europe to impose lockdowns and restrictions on the movement of people and goods as part of the efforts to curb the spread of the coronavirus. This resulted in severe disruption in supply chains and temporary suspension of manufacturing activities at several production facilities, whichled to production delays. Nevertheless, order backlogs and sales to new customers in eastern European countries, notably Sweden, Finland, the Netherlands, and Denmark, gradually aided in a market recovery.
As a result, the slump in sales noted in H1/2020 was partially offset in H2/2020. The rising preference for localized supply chains and the need for a highly efficient manufacturing process bodes well for the growth of the market. Electronic Manufacturing Services (EMS) vendors can manufacture electronics products at a reduced total cost to OEMs. EMS companies can particularly manufacture customized products on a large scale while focusing on reducing manufacturing costs and leveraging higher capacity utilization. EMS vendors are also integrating the latest technologies, such as AI and 3D digital printing, into their production processes as part of the efforts to reduce their capital investment in inventory, facilities, and equipment used in manufacturing.
Such strategic initiatives being pursued by EMS vendors are expected to encourage OEMs to consider outsourcing electronics manufacturing to EMS vendors and focus on their core competencies.The continued adoption of cloud computing infrastructure and the rollout of smart city projects coupled with the rising popularity of smart homes are some of the other factors that are expected to contribute to the growth of the market. Vendors are aggressively adopting big data and implementing predictive maintenance technologies in all areas of EMS. The Internet of Things (IoT) can play a crucial role in predictive technology and big data by aiding in collecting, processing, and analyzing data in real-time, thereby helping in increasing productivity and efficiency. Predictive maintenance envisages linking factories through the internet to monitor and control processes remotely using mobile devices or personal computers.
Predictive maintenance helps EMS vendors in accelerating production, gain greater control over quality, and reduce costs. The proliferation of IoT networks is driving the demand for highly efficient smart applications and devices, thereby paving the way for the growth of the market. The strong emphasis on reducing the time to market is anticipated to drive the market over the forecast period. The time the product takes to reach the OEMs’ facilities from the EMS providers’ facilities is turning out to be a major concern for the OEMs. As a result, OEMs are particularly hesitant to deal with EMS providers located at longer distances. Hence, EMS providers are exploring the alternative of micro-logistics to meet the OEMs’ demands for accelerated delivery and are investing heavily in improving their logistics to ensure the timely delivery of products.
Service Insights
The electronic manufacturing service segment accounted for the largest revenue share of 45% in 2022. This type of service helps industries with a continuous supply of services, reduces operational costs, and mitigates risks. The growing technological advancements with the rising adoption of electronic devices across sectors, such as aerospace, healthcare, automotive, and telecommunication, in the region have increased the need for electronic manufacturing services.

Furthermore, stringent regulatory compliance in Europe for product safety, privacy, and environmental stability has anticipated the need for suitable electronic design & engineering services, leading to market growth.
End-Use Insights
The IT & telecom segment accounted for the largestrevenue share of 48% in 2022. The IT & telecom industry is identified as the most evolving sector of the market. The sector is continuously adopting advanced technology solutions for fulfilling growing customer demands. The electronic contract manufacturing and design services offer enhanced scalability and flexibility to manufacture electronic devices as per consumer demands. The sector mainly outsources these services to offer customized and specialized services and efficiently handle large-scale productions and customer variation requirements. The healthcare segment is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 11.2% during the forecast period.
The growth of the segment can be attributed to the rising demand for advanced medical devices, including Computed Tomography (CT) scanner assemblies, ultrasound imaging systems, and blood analyzers. The increasing geriatric population in European countries, such as Italy, Greece, and Portugal, is typically driving the demand for ambient-assisted devices. The high costs associated with the manufacturing of these devices are prompting healthcare OEMs to opt for contract manufacturing. The rising demand for patient care devices and sophisticated diagnostics devices, particularly in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, also bodes well for market growth.
