Research Methodologies Followed:

Primary Research:

Primary research was conducted after acquiring extensive knowledge about the Medical Equipment Maintenance market scenario through secondary research. Primary interviews were conducted with market experts from both the demand-side (such as hospitals, surgical centers, orthopedic clinics, dental clinics, CROs, CMOs, academic institutions, and medical device companies among others) and supply-side respondents (such as presidents, CEOs, vice presidents, directors, general managers, service manage, biomedical engineers, heads of business units, and senior managers) across five major geographies, namely, North America, Europe, the Asia Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East, and Africa. Approximately 30% of the primary interviews were conducted with stakeholders from the demand side, while those from the supply side accounted for the remaining 70%. Primary data for this report was collected through questionnaires, emails, and telephonic interviews.

Secondary Research:

The secondary research process involves the widespread use of secondary sources, directories, databases (such as Bloomberg Businessweek, Factiva, and D&B), white papers, annual reports, companies house documents, investor presentations, and SEC filings of companies. Secondary research was used to identify and collect information useful for the extensive, technical, market-oriented, and commercial study of the Medical Equipment Maintenance market. A database of the key industry leaders was also prepared using secondary research.

Driver: Rising focus on preventive medical equipment maintenance

The focus on the preventive maintenance of medical equipment has grown in recent years, as healthcare institutions seek to enhance patient safety and care quality. This involves a carefully designed program where maintenance tasks are performed in a scheduled manner to avoid larger and costly repairs down the line. It also helps in reducing equipment downtime, which enhances day-to-day operations and improves device reliability.

Restraint: High initial cost and significant maintenance expenditure

Maintenance programs for medical devices enable healthcare providers to track and monitor their condition, and thereby ensure efficient utilization and maximum uptime. This is also essential, given the current focus on preventive maintenance and cost pressures, to control total expenditure against a background of austerity measures. Such programs include the deployment of asset management solutions, which use advanced technologies.

However, the deployment of these solutions incurs high initial installation costs and significant maintenance expenditure, while the installation of advanced medical equipment incurs a service contract cost (~12% of the cost of medical equipment) to be paid per year. The service cost thus paid during the lifespan of the equipment is usually more than the cost of the equipment. The high cost associated with the purchase and maintenance of advanced medical equipment is restraining end users from adopting them.

Opportunity: Emergence of ISOs

The medical equipment maintenance and services sector was initially dominated by OEMs. However, OEMs typically charge more than third-party vendors, and often take longer for maintenance, resulting in higher associated costs as well as downtime. This situation, especially given the backdrop of continuing austerity measures and the need for cost-curtailment in European healthcare systems, has led to the emergence of ISOs dedicated to solely providing maintenance services.
