Laboratory Informatics Market Segmentation

The worldwide laboratory informatics market is split based on product, deployment, component, end-use, and geography.

Laboratory Informatics Market By Product

• Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS)
• Scientific Data Management Systems (SDMS)
• Electronic Lab Notebooks (ELN)
• Electronic Data Capture (EDC) & Clinical Data Management Systems (CDMS)
• Laboratory Execution Systems (LES)
• Enterprise Content Management (ECM)
• Chromatography Data Systems (CDS)

Based on the product, the laboratory information management systems (LIMS) segment is having a potential share in the global laboratory informatics market and the segment is also projected to maintain its dominance throughout the forecast period from 2022 to 2030. The Laboratory Information Management System or LIMS is software that allows the management of samples, test results, and associated data to improve lab productivity.

Laboratory Informatics Market By Deployment

• On-premise
• Cloud-based
• Web-hosted

According to laboratory informatics industry analysis, the cloud-based segment will lead the market in 2021. Cloud-based technology allows for the offsite backup of vast volumes of data, thereby freeing up space on equipment and facilitating data retrieval based on client requirements. Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), as well as Software as a Service (SaaS) is the three services provided by the technology.

Laboratory Informatics Market By Component

• Software
• Service

In terms of components, the service segment held the largest market share in 2021. The outsourcing of LIMS services is increasing, which is helping to segment growth. Large biopharmaceutical research facilities subcontract these services because they lack the resources and expertise set required for analytics adoption.

Laboratory Informatics Market By End-Use

• Life Science Companies
• CROs
• Food & Beverage and Agriculture Industries
• Chemical Industry
• Petrochemical Refineries and Oil & Gas Industry
• Environmental Testing Laboratories
• Other Industries (Forensics and Metal & Mining Laboratories)

According to the laboratory informatics market forecast, the CROs segment is predicted to grow profitably during the projected timeframe. The expanding trend of outsourcing laboratory research and development in drug discovery is responsible for this increase. The growing adoption of CROs by outsourcing firms to reduce healthcare expenses is leading to the lucrative expansion of the CROs industry.
