The increasing production volumes of electric vehicles and the associated changes in the automotive value chain are also of concern to the mechanical engineering companies involved. Our client, a leading global manufacturer of high-precision machining centers, aims to capitalize on the resulting market opportunities and serve attractive target customers who will be manufacturing complex housings for automotive electric motors in the future with new machine solutions.

The goal of our structured and global market research was to identify companies that manufacture electric motor housings for electric vehicles and to collect relevant data on these companies in order to derive market size and market development from this information.

Our client, a leading German premium automobile manufacturer, planned to expand its supplier base for high-quality trim parts made of wood, aluminum, and plastics for interior and exterior applications. Our market analysis identified, screened, and systematically evaluated more than 100 potential suppliers worldwide. Based on our comprehensive market analysis, the purchasing and development departments have the opportunity to broaden their supplier base and establish new local suppliers for their global plants.

Our client, a Swiss supplier of precision parts made of steel, aluminum, and titanium, manufactured on 5-axis machines, was considering the purchase of several new large milling machines for machining large components for demanding applications. Since the investment, including the construction of the new production hall, was reaching a critical size for this medium-sized company, management commissioned us to conduct a systematic market analysis prior to the purchase.

The study examined the potential, customer needs, and requirements for large 5-axis milled parts in the aerospace, machine components, energy technology, maritime drive technology, and vacuum technology sectors, among others. More than 50 interviews with buyers and decision-makers at potential target customers in these industries provided reliable information on market potential, opportunities, and risks.

In this market research, we compiled a comprehensive list of contract cutting companies currently using waterjet, laser, or plasma cutting technology for the strategic sales department of a waterjet cutting machine manufacturer. The information from this market analysis serves the client as a basis for systematically approaching new customers in the target market.

For the management of a global testing and certification service provider, we conducted this market analysis of the German market for statutory testing (safety inspections, metrological inspections) in hospitals and medical practices. The continued consolidation of the hospital and medical practice landscape, the implementation of the new Medical Devices and Practice Ordinance (MPBetrV), and continued increases in investments in medical technology in hospitals and medical practices are driving dynamic market development. This market research served our client as a basis for the further strategic expansion of this business area.

For a provider of technical operations management for healthcare facilities, we conducted comprehensive market research to analyze the market potential, competitive situation, and customer needs in approximately 50 selected hospitals. Through interviews with the facilities' managing directors and technical managers, we developed a comprehensive overview of the status quo, needs, and requirements for service providers in the areas of facility management, ICT operations management, medical technology management, contract management, and consulting. The market research served the client's management as a basis for planning their market entry.

For a specialized engineering service provider, we conducted a market analysis to examine the future market potential for the decommissioning of nuclear power plants in Germany. Against the backdrop of the nuclear phase-out, we analyzed the market situation, key trades involved in decommissioning, and engineering firms and service providers currently active in the segment.

For a developer of a novel robotics solution in the field of assembly automation, we conducted a customized market research analysis, analyzing market potential, applications, current market solutions, trends, and customer requirements. Based on the findings of this market analysis, the client was able to systematically launch its product.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT INDIVIDUAL MARKET RESEARCH

Here we answer some frequently asked questions from our clients about conducting market research:

Market research is the structured collection of information about the market, target groups, and the competition based on defined questions. These questions can relate, for example, to market volume, market growth/market forecast, competitors, customer requirements in the target market, or size and trends in the target market and are determined individually for each project. The results of market research serve to reliably assess strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats in the market (SWOT analysis), for example, during market entry, internationalization, or for business plans of start-ups.

Key to successfully conducting market research is clearly defining the target market ( market segmentation ) and precisely defining the research questions. Commonly used market research methods include secondary sources (e.g., statistics, publications from companies in the market, and specialist articles) and primary market research methods (e.g., interviews, surveys, and panels).

Market research is used in a variety of ways. For example, company founders market research to assess the market potential and competitive situation of their business idea as part of their business plan . Market research at established companies serves, for example, to identify new customers in a particular business area. Market research is also frequently used to assess potential in market launch projects. Questions about market trends and customer preferences for deriving marketing strategies are also reasons why entrepreneurs contact us. Market research can also be used specifically to create a competitive analysis or for continuous market monitoring.

Good market research utilizes a variety of sources to develop a neutral and as complete a picture of the market situation as possible. Important sources for market research include market studies and statistics , search engines, specialized industry journals, information from trade fairs and industry events, data from industry associations , company databases, annual report databases , and social networks such as Xing or LinkedIn. The precise selection of sources and the definition of the approach always depend on the questions and content of the market analysis.

Provided sufficient time and qualified personnel are available, market research can generally be conducted internally. However, especially in medium-sized companies, many companies lack departments with sufficient experience in conducting market analyses and are familiar with the relevant methods.

specific knowledge of sources is also required to obtain reliable market information, even for niche markets, innovations, or technology-driven industries. Furthermore, access to specialized, fee-based databases necessary for full access to critical information. In such cases, working with a specialized market research agency like MEYER INDUSTRY RESEARCH can be a good alternative.
