Top Impacting Factors
The rapid rise in urbanization across the world has boosted the demand in construction industry for the construction of residential and commercial buildings. This is anticipated to increase the demand for the mechanical, electrical and plumbing services market. Moreover, rise in disposable income of people in general has boosted the demand in home renovation projects. This is expected to hugely boost the demand for mechanical, electrical, and plumbing services. Moreover, these services require a significant level of expertise, which many general contractors often do not have. Hence, outsourcing of mechanical, electrical, and plumbing services significantly reduces their financial risks. This is one of the major drivers that is anticipated to increase demand in the mechanical, electrical, and plumbing service markets. However, the dearth of skilled labor for efficient delivery of these services is one of the restraining factors hindering the growth of the mechanical, electrical, and plumbing services market. According to a study done by the UN, the urban population is anticipated to increase from 54% in 2016 to 66% in 2050, which require a rapid development in the urban infrastructure. This is expected to create lucrative opportunities for the mechanical, electrical, and plumbing services market growth during the forecast period.
