The "Commercial Aerospace Digital Solutions Sector, 2024-2033" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

In 2023, the global commercial aerospace digital solutions sector generated a revenue of $28.97 billion, and it is anticipated to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7% to reach $57.03 billion in 2033.

This study analyzes digital R&D investment and annual digital expenditure, and it covers the airline, airport, MRO service provider, and OEM industries.

• Airlines and airports are classified from Tiers I to V, while OEMs cover Tiers I to III.
• MRO service providers cover all the aerospace components.

Air travel demand increased in 2023, and by the end of 2024, air traffic numbers will equal 2019, pre-COVID-19 levels. This is a major driver that will foster the digital transformation journeys of airports, airlines, OEMs, and MRO suppliers. The higher the demand for air travel, the higher the aircraft utilization rate, leading to a substantial increase in demand for new aircraft and aftermarket services. As a result, spending on digital transformation will rise.

However, the high upfront cost of digital tools and recurring costs for software licenses, maintenance, and updates can challenge small companies, as they may not realize the return on investment (RoI) from digital initiatives immediately.

North America is the highest revenue contributor to the global commercial aerospace digital solutions sector. The region is also likely to register the highest growth rate during the forecast period, followed by Europe, APAC, Latin America, the Middle East, and Africa. In terms of industry verticals, airlines are the leading contributors, followed by OEMs, airports, and MRO service providers.

In H1 2024, leading aviation IT companies opted for the acquisitions route; Amadeus and SITA, for example, acquired Vision Box and Materna IPS, respectively, providing digital technology solutions to airports. During the forecast period, more acquisitions from leading aviation IT vendors are expected, as they consider acquiring companies that create synergies with their product portfolios. This will help them enhance and optimize cross-selling opportunities and upsell their bundled products to airport operators.
