Global Inorganic Chemicals Market to Reach 176 Million Metric Tons by 2015, According to a New Report by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.

San Jose, California (PRWEB) January 12, 2012

Follow us on LinkedIn ? Although the inorganic chemicals sector occupies a rather small share of the global chemicals industry, these chemicals find application in a wide range of industries including leather, pulp and paper, tires, dyestuffs, explosives, detergents, cigarettes and rubber chemicals among others. Growth in the Inorganic Chemicals industry continues to be influenced by three key factors ? economy, prices, and supply and demand scenario of chemicals. Stringent pollution control norms have jump-started the usage of inorganic chemicals, and together with the unraveling of potential advantages, they continue to remain the growth drivers for the forthcoming years. While industrial growth is almost saturated in the developed regions of Europe and North America, future growth is expected to emanate from Asia-Pacific and Middle East. China and India, with their ability to manufacture these chemicals at low costs represent the main growth areas for inorganic chemicals through 2015.

Chlor-alkali is one of the biggest inorganic chemicals markets by value. World soda ash market witnessed a fall in recent years primarily due to the decline in demand for glass from the building and automotive industries, and other end-use sectors. The market demonstrated a rapid recovery in 2010 fueled by increased demand from industrial consumers. Asia-Pacific is emerging as a potential avenue for chlor-alkali due to the rapidly growing markets in the region. Middle East nations reflect competitive advantage of low energy costs. Major developments in the hydrogen peroxide market, another important inorganic chemical is expected to be driven largely by the ?environmental concerns? of the chemical industry.

Global Accounting, Auditing and Bookkeeping Services Market to Reach US$267 Billion by 2015, According to a New Report by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.

San Jose, California (PRWEB) January 11, 2012

Follow us on LinkedIn ? Businesses during the crisis period were confronted with increasing receivables and slow collections, and with most of them reporting decreased tax season revenues, accounting, auditing and bookkeeping firms serving such companies were the worst hit. Even those accounting firms which remained strong for a certain amount of time slowly succumbed to the worst economic climate. Nevertheless, the recession induced certain positive changes in the market, foremost among them being the accelerated trend of financial professionals donning more responsible positions in the organizations they serve. Accounting, auditing and bookkeeping service providers are portraying a more active role as trusted advisers as the market comes out of the recessionary impact. Accountancy in most of the client organizations now supervises top management in all monetary aspects related to business running. Moving forwards, the traditional accounting and financial services is going to evolve into a more mature profession specializing in niche areas such as high-level diagnosis and high level guidance and advisory. During the crisis, accounting firms also spent more time with existing clients and tried developing innovative solutions for better serving their needs rather than scouting for new clients. Increased automation significantly reduced the time taken for the routine accounting jobs, forcing accounting professionals to expand scope of work.

PwC retained the top spot among the Big Four, followed by Deloitte, E&Y and KMPG. After witnessing a subdued performance in 2009, the Big Four companies inched ahead in 2010. The firms utilized the time period for building a strong platform to serve the increased client demand they anticipated post crisis. The companies invested in building markets, strengthening global strategies and in training people instead. Smaller companies on the other hand sought opportunities to grab smaller and mid-sized clients from the Big Four.

Region wise, the slowdown and stricter regulatory environment continue to have a bearing on US tax accountancy industry. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of the year 2009 brought in an era of tax cuts reducing demand for services of tax accounting professionals in the US. On the contrary, in Europe, implementation of new regulations has been the major growth driver for the accounting services market. Germany and the United Kingdom are the two major countries in Europe which are witnessing a rapid growth in their offshore accounting services markets, mainly because of a shortage of labor and also price pressures. Segment-wise, in the global market, services that are in high demand currently are internal audit, risk management and due diligence, while IPO and corporate finance are still in a lull. The service segment of cross-border tax advice demonstrated consistent growth. The International Accounting Standards are being rapidly adopted in several countries. Around 120 countries have permissions for IFRS implementation for the present.

The research report titled ?Accounting, Auditing and Bookkeeping Services: A Global Outlook? announced by Global Industry Analysts, Inc., provides a collection of statistical anecdotes, market briefs, and concise summaries of research findings. The report offers a bird?s eye view of the industry, highlights latest accounting trends, and demand drivers as well as the negative impact of recent economic recession on the industry.

Worldwide Commercial Printing Industry to Reach US$535.8 Billion by 2015, According to New Report by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.

San Jose, California (PRWEB) January 10, 2012

Follow us on LinkedIn ? As the printing industry mainly produces publicity products, commercial printed matter, newspapers, periodicals, printed packaging and modules, the fortunes of the sector are largely linked to the depth of corporate advertising budgets. The industry is highly competitive with customers demanding shorter run lengths, personalization, and faster turnarounds. The advent of digital technology into printing resulted in the opening up of new avenues for the industry. Today, digital presses combining printing variable data and offset technology, occupy the floors of every modern printing house. Wide-format printing is a low-volume high-margin business of the commercial printing industry, driven by technological advances in output resolution, color, speed and digitalization. Direct mail and commercial printing are rapid growth areas for the industry, as they meet the consumer requirement for high-quality as well as personalization.

The global financial turmoil precipitated the downslide of advertising revenues, thereby stirring a wave of downsizing, consolidation and restructuring across the board in the commercial printing industry. The widespread use of the internet and handheld digital devices contributed even more to the steep decline in hard print business revenues. However, the recession also prompted printing equipment manufacturers, product suppliers and service providers alike to rework their existing business strategies and customer relationship management skills.

Digital technologies such as inkjet and electrophotography have been making inroads into traditional printing processes such as offset, gravure, flexography and lithography, due to the demand for variable, short-run and customized printing. However, offset printing continues to hold its own due to the quality of output and the constant innovation in the segment. Professional print providers adopted wide format printing and digital technologies were able to weather the tough period successfully. Printing ink and machinery manufacturers relied on product innovation and better customer service to sustain sales volumes through the financial crisis. LED curing lamps; eco-friendly, UV and thermal inks; latex printers and UV inkjet printers are just a few of the latest technologies taking the market by a storm.

Despite the prevalence of the internet and portable digital devices, printed matter continues to charm consumers. With a gradual increase in corporate budgets and continued consumer patronage for printed advertisement and graphics materials, the industry is anticipated to register healthy growth in the near future. The Asia Pacific region, including Japan, dominates the commercial printing industry in terms of market size, miles ahead of the North American and European markets. Emerging economies in the Asia Pacific and Middle East markets are forecast to set the pace of growth for the entire industry in the next few years.

The research report titled ?Commercial Printing: A Global Outlook? announced by Global Industry Analysts, Inc., provides a collection of statistical anecdotes, market briefs, and concise summaries of research findings. The report offers a rudimentary overview of the industry, highlights latest trends and demand drivers, in addition to providing statistical insights. Regional markets briefly abstracted and covered include US, Canada, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East and Latin America. The report offers a compilation of recent mergers, acquisitions, and strategic corporate developments. Also included is an indexed, easy-to-refer, fact-finder directory listing the addresses, and contact details of companies worldwide.

Global Hospital Information Systems Market to Reach US$17 Billion by 2017, According to New Report by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.

San Jose, California (PRWEB) November 22, 2011

Follow us on LinkedIn – Adoption of IT is not new to hospital industry with several IT tools already proving their worth in billing and administrative functions. Use of IT in clinical environment however has been restricted over the years, given the sensitive nature of patient information, medical procedures and treatment regimes, all of which can be vulnerable against data losses, or misuse. However, with growing realization of benefits, and rapid developments in technology, IT is slowly making its way even into the clinical set up, especially for capturing and storing patient records, and managing imaging, testing and surgical room procedures.

The need among healthcare providers to transform their legacy systems into advanced information systems by integrating their clinical, business, and technical assets for achieving profitability and offering services targeting fast changing consumer demands, while still maintaining high degree of service quality and efficiency is also driving hospitals to invest considerably in healthcare IT. Information technology allows critical information to be captured and stored electronically, streamlines clinical workflows, facilitates decision making, and monitors public health and therefore regarded as a highly efficient tool for healthcare industry. Several IT systems have therefore found its way into the hospital industry, Hospital Information Systems (HIS) being one among them.

The healthcare industry although resilient to a degree is not immune from the developments in macro-economic environment. Tighter credit market conditions across the world have resulted in increased difficulty in securing finances necessary for capital purchases. Worldwide hospitals and healthcare providers were fraught with reimbursement pressures, lowered direct government spending due to constricted budgets, reduced demand and consumer spending on pharmaceuticals, and healthcare services (as a result of increased loss of corporate health coverage). Tight budgets, lack of credit and finances for capital purchases, declines in philanthropic donations, pushed hospitals and healthcare facilities into curtailing their expenses on the purchase of new equipment and upgradation of information infrastructure. Hospitals remained wary of their IT investments thereby squeezing opportunities for the global Hospital Information Systems market during the 2007-2009 recession period. Despite several benefits stacked in its favor and notwithstanding its sturdy value proposition from a technology standpoint, HIS implementations weakened due to the aforementioned macro economic factors including the general strategy of ?doing more with less? among hospitals. Difficulty in accessing capital from tax-exempt bonds made it difficult for hospitals to sustain profitability during the period, thereby affecting the ability to fund new IT infrastructure and upgrade existing infrastructure, thus throwing deployment of HIS onto the backburner until signs of an economic thaw. As a result, growth in the market hit a trough in the year 2009.

The global HIS market staged a healthy recovery in the year 2010. The resurgence in market was primarily led by various stimulus packages offered by the government to infuse vigor into healthcare segment. The financial incentives given by Governments for adopting technology based innovations and improvements in healthcare also encouraged hospitals, healthcare professionals and other participants to start reinvesting in HIS, thereby driving market growth. Fast paced developments in healthcare sector in developing markets especially China and India will additionally infuse growth in the global HIS market in the short to medium term period. The large underserved market also presents tremendous opportunities for HIS market to tap. For instance, small private practices with about 4-5 doctors are relatively underserved by IT as they often fall short or resources to implement efficient tools for addressing critical data management and therefore presents a perfect opportunity for HIS providers to tap.

The market over the next few years will also benefit from healthcare industry?s focus on addressing huge demand for affordable-yet-quality healthcare services. Increasing costs have left the healthcare service patrons searching for affordable-yet-quality healthcare services. This trend created an urgent need for hospitals and other healthcare providers to re-visit their operational strategies, in order to be effective in catering to changing demands of consumers. With the desire to keep pace with the fast changing consumer demand, hospitals and healthcare providers are fast leaning towards adoption of Hospital Information Systems, which in turn is resulting in an increased number of HIS implementations.

As stated by the new market research report on Hospital Information Systems, Europe continues to remain the largest regional market for HIS. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest growing regional market with revenue from the region waxing at a CAGR of about 11% over the analysis period. Growth in the Asia-Pacific HIS market will be especially driven by growing income levels, improving spending power and the ability to afford quality healthcare services among people, and robust developments in healthcare IT especially in developing markets such as China and India. Clinical Information Systems represents the fastest growing market segment.

Major players in the marketplace include Agfa-Gevaert bv, Akhil Systems Pvt. Ltd., Allscripts Healthcare Solutions Inc., AxSys Technology Ltd., Brunie-Software GmbH, Cerner Corporation, GE Healthcare, Healthland, iSOFT Group Limited, Integrated Medical Systems Pty Ltd., Keane, McKesson Corporation, Medical Information Technology, Inc., MEDISTAR Praxiscomputer GmbH, Philips Medical Systems Nederland B.V, QuadraMed Corporation, Siemens Healthcare, Softlink International Pvt Ltd., Sysmex Corporation, among others.

The research report titled “Hospital Information Systems (HIS): A Global Strategic Business Report” announced by Global Industry Analysts, Inc., provides a comprehensive review of trends, issues, strategic industry activities, and profiles of major companies worldwide. The report provides market estimates and projections (US$ Million) for product segments Non-Clinical Information Systems; and Clinical Information Systems, across geographic markets such as the US, Japan, Europe (France, Germany, Italy, UK, Spain, and Rest of Europe), Asia Pacific (Australia, China, South Korea and Rest of Asia-Pacific), and Rest of World.
