• However, the country's FM market consists of several smaller and local vendors, which poses a significant challenge in terms of pricing pressure, lower margins, barriers to entry in the market, etc. The players must standardize the offerings for diverse market needs in a fragmented market. Local players with fewer international relationships led to fewer adoption of technologically-advanced solutions, which will be a major challenge with a long-term effect.
