Frost Radar: Lab Automation and Monitoring Solutions, 2024

Transforming Lab Operations: Automation, Monitoring, and Industry Dynamics

Industry Snapshot

  • Automation will drive 61% of the $2.72 billion global diagnostics market in 2024.
  • Asia-Pacific's automated liquid handling is booming with China’s robotic innovations and a global surplus of automated liquid handling systems.
  • Remote sample collection and data convergence are driving lab monitoring innovation.

Lab automation and monitoring solutions are revolutionizing operations by addressing pre-analytical, analytical, and post-analytical workflows, alongside comprehensive facility oversight. While automation integrates robotics, instruments, and software to streamline processes, monitoring systems utilize sensors and environmental controls to enhance facility performance and maintenance. With over 30 companies generating $2.50 billion in revenue in 2023, intense industry competition drives innovation and fragmentation. The top 5 vendors — Beckman Coulter, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Agilent Technologies, Abbott, and Eppendorf — command less than 75% of the market, fuelling a dynamic and evolving industry.
