The drive to tie manufacturing plants more tightly into the rest of the business could impact the market for plant and technical operations software, according to AMR Research.
Although AMR is forecasting an annual growth rate of 22 per cent for the software over the next five years, it warned that ERP products are threatening to take a chunk of the profits.
