Rampant Urbanization to Augment the Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP) Services Market Growth
Mechanical electrical and plumbing (MEP) services
include the planning, designing, and managing various MEP systems of the
building. MEP services are gaining traction with the increasing incorporation
of BIM (Building Information Modeling) in building construction, planning, and management.
MEP services are an integral part of the residential, commercial, and
government buildings.
Market
Dynamics:
Rapid urbanization in emerging economies and
increase in infrastructure projects (such as the emergence of smart cities) is
expected to propel the growth of the mechanical,
electrical, and plumbing (MEP) services market. For
instance, the government of India launched ‘100 Smart Cities Mission’ (an urban
renewal and retrofitting program), which aims to tackle key issues resulting
from India's rapid urbanization by 2022.
Moreover, increasing number of construction
projects worldwide and increasing
infrastructure investments are also expected to augment the growth of
the mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) services market. For instance,
Qatar is building nine new football stadiums for the 2022 FIFA World. Moreover,
in September 2020, SG Blocks received a US$ 2.9 million contract to deliver 7
modular buildings in New Mexico.
Asia
Pacific is expected to witness robust growth in the mechanical,
electrical, and plumbing (MEP) services market due to the increasing infrastructural activities and the increasing
infrastructure investments in the region, especially in India and China. For
instance, China approved 26 infrastructure projects with a total expected
investment of around 981.7 billion Yuan (US$ 142 billion) in 2019.
Competitive
Analysis:
Major players operating in the mechanical,
electrical, and plumbing (MEP) services market are EMCOR, WSP, MEP Engineering,
Macro, and Global Facility Solutions.
Major players in the market are adopting
various strategies, such as product launch, merger and acquisition, business
expansion, etc., to strengthen their market position. For instance, in February

Holland Park, Glasgow for end client Moda Living.
In February 2021, Emrill received a
three-year contract from Arada to deliver MEP, heating, ventilation, and air
conditioning (HVAC), lifeguard, housekeeping and specialist services for
several locations within Aljada, including the Aljada Discovery Centre.
In February 2021, REX Engineering Group
merged with Integrated Construction Company and Edwards Construction Services to
form REX Construction Services.
In February 2019, Ei Design, Inc. signed an
agreement to acquire the MEP business of Wright Engineers to enhance its
best-in-class platform in the commercial MEP engineering industry.
