CABA releases its Intelligent Buildings Market Sizing North America 2015 Report

The Continental Automated Buildings Association, through its Intelligent & Integrated Buildings Council, recently completed its comprehensive update to its original "Intelligent and Integrated Buildings Technologies: Market Sizing in North America 2010" report.

The new study, entitled “CABA Intelligent Buildings Market Sizing North America 2015 Report”, provides an in-depth analysis of the North American market for integrated and converged intelligent building control systems. The report assess market sizes by product at the first point of distribution, products at engineered and commissioned prices and determine the total value added, factoring in hardware price erosion, throughout the entire supply chain.

The report estimates the market for building automation and controls systems (BACS) was worth US$7,556 million in 2013, having grown 4.9 percent since CABA’s last market sizing report. The report also estimates that the lighting controls market was worth just US$1,767 million in 2013, but has undertaken phenomenal growth of 91 percent since 2008. Further, the fire detection and alarm market was worth US$4,865 million in 2013 and grew just 3.6 percent since 2008. The security market, comprising closed circuit television (CCTV), access control and intrusion was worth US$12,368 million in 2013 and has grown strongly, up 8.5 percent since 2008, led by CCTV.

In addition to market size insights, the report also examined direct expansion central air conditioning (DX AC) entrants, increasing sophistication of air conditioning (AC) and heating controls, variable refrigerant flow (VRF) systems equipped with control and energy management functionality, and new developments in smart homes and communicating room controllers.

CABA's updated study is designed to be of interest to: building controls manufacturers; systems integrators; controls contractors; facility management companies; energy management service companies; original equipment manufacturers of heating, ventilation and air conditioning hardware; architects; building services consultants; security, fire alarm and lighting control companies; telecommunications and computer hardware manufacturers; network and structured cabling suppliers; and installers.
