Market Overview

The FY2017 domestic CAD/CAM/CAE systems market size rose by 2.9% on a year-over-year basis to achieve 355,000 million yen, based on the shipment values at system manufacturers. Overseas economic recovery has continuously improved export and productions and has led private demand to revive, as can see from improvement of personal spending and also of private equipment investment. Therefore, the environment surrounding the CAD/CAM/CAE systems market was not bad, but the market growth for FY2017 was limited due to decrease in EDA (Electronic Design Automation) and also to shift of business models at large system makers for machinery from license sales to subscriptions.

Noteworthy Topics

Large CAD/CAM/CAE system makers for machinery have shifted from a traditional license and maintenance model to a subscription-based model.  Such shift in their strategies has slowed down the sales performance at CAD/CAM/CAE system makers temporarily.

If the makers entirely shift their business models to subscription and end their license sales, the profit-making structure at distributors is forced to change completely.  As the rate of direct sales at CAD/CAM/CAE system makers increase and adoption of software-as-a-service (SaaS) increases at user companies, the market of distributors is sure to shrink.

Research Outline

1.Research Period: June to October, 2018
2.Research Object: manufacturers of CAD/CAM/CAE systems for machinery, EDA (Electronic Design Automation) systems, and CAD systems for civil engineering/construction industry
3.Research Methogology: Face-to-face research by the expert researchers and literature research

What is the CAD/CAM/CAE Systems Market?

The CAD/CAM/CAE systems market in this research indicates the market of CAD/CAM/CAE systems for machinery (i.e., 2-dimention CAD, 3-dimention CAD, CAD/CAM for mold designing, CAE for machinery, PDM, and etc.,) as well as EDA (Electronic Design Automation) systems which are software to support designing electronic devices and semiconductors, and CAD systems which are software to support designing buildings, facilities, civil engineering, and plants. The market size is based on the shipment values at system makers.
