Summary
This service is designed to offer our clients accurate and credible global market sales data for x-ray detectors across the medical, industrial and security industry verticals. Market data is segmented by industry, product category, technology and major geographical region in order to provide a comprehensive and insightful view of the global market. Where possible, historical sales data is reported to PMI by individual OEMs under non-disclosure agreements. This data is used to calculate a historical aggregate global market size by calendar quarter on a rolling basis. In lieu of OEM reported data, PMI uses a propriety autoregressive statistical model to estimate sales data. Alongside this historical data, a quarterly 12-month global sales forecast is generated using a combination of quantitative statistical modelling as well as discussions with senior industry executives in order to capture their market outlooks and specific industry trends. Complementing the quarterly data feed, a written summary report is published each quarter containing analyst commentary on the growth trends and the factors driving the market growth. This ‘Global Market Intelligence Service’ is designed for executives working within the x-ray imaging sector, particularly those working within a market intelligence, product management, strategy, marketing or investment function.
Proposed Data Segmentation
Market data points are anticipated to be segmented by industry vertical, product group, detector technology and geographical region. The drivers of sales growth by each segment will be discussed within the summary report. The OEM’s collaborating with PMI have the opportunity to suggest changes to the proposed data specification up to the 30th June 2021. The Sankey diagram below demonstrates the anticipated market data segmentation. Within the output of the report, each node on the Sankey diagram will represent either sales revenue or sales unit volumes, depending on the data view selected.

Research Process





Engage with industry stakeholders: the first stage is to engage with industry stakeholders to discuss and understand their needs from a research project. This process helps to create the desired data specifications and core deliverables.
Primary data collection: once the project scope is agreed upon, PMI seeks to collect sales data directly from OEMs under NDA agreement. Data directly submitted to PMI forms the basis of our market size calculations and ensures accurate market sizing estimates.
Discussion with OEMs and technology providers: alongside data collection, PMI seeks to engage senior executives in discussion around their perspectives on market growth dynamics. These include executives working within a strategy, market intelligence, product management as well as sales & marketing functions.
Secondary research: data is collected from secondary sources including financial reports, customs trade data, government institutions and regulators. This data is used to augment the data reported directly from OEMs to help validate market data points and assumptions.
Delivery and on-going analyst support: alongside the core deliverables, project delivery includes a presentation to highlight the key findings of the research, followed by a Q&A session to answer customer questions. Once the data and report are delivered, analyst support is provided to help customers maximise value from the project.
Timescales
- Delivery of this service is expected to begin during H2 2021.
- The deadline for collaborating OEMs to change the data specification is the 30th June 2021.
