Smart Transportation Industry Overview
As the market penetration of the smart transportation industry is relatively low, firms are poised to offer products and solutions that are tailor-made to specific segments and even customize products for individual customers, enhancing differentiation and price realization. The major participants in the smart transportation business, like Cisco, SAP SE, IBM, etc., are focusing on growing their operations in new areas. These companies have a track history of developing novel and inventive ideas to expand their product lines in the smart transportation sector. Overall, the industry's intensity of competitive rivalry is expected to be high during the forecast period.
