The global testing, inspection, and certification market is expected to reach USD 309.7 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 3.8% during the forecast period 2021 to 2030. Methods of testing and inspection that are reliable and work well are important to make sure that companies continue to meet the highest quality standards and work at their most productive and efficient levels. When businesses use TIC approaches, they can make their operations more efficient by changing the tasks in their supply chains to better meet their own needs and goals. It is expected that the increase in the number of large companies in the manufacturing, automotive, and consumer goods industries that outsource testing, inspection, and certification services will help the TIC market grow. The growth of the TIC industry is helped by the fact that businesses and companies are becoming more aware of how important it is to do testing, inspection, and certification activities that are both safe and effective.

Market Overview:

The testing, inspection, and certification business is a big part of the global economy because it helps improve the quality of goods used in a wide range of industries by a wide range of end users. More and more industries are using cutting-edge technology. This has increased the need for TIC services, which promote the safe development and use of innovations while also making sure they follow the rules. TIC services also provide the certifications that are needed. This is because some industries, like the healthcare and pharmaceuticals industries, the food and beverage industries, the automotive industry, and the industrial manufacturing industry, need products and technologies that are internationally certified. Testing, inspection, and certification (TIC) is growing because more and more businesses and companies want to use safe and effective methods for testing, inspection, and certification. Businesses can guarantee the highest quality standards, as well as high productivity and the most efficiency, by putting in place reliable and effective inspection and testing procedures. When businesses use TIC techniques, they can change their supply chain operations to fit their needs and preferences. This makes business procedures easier. For example, in January 2022, Temasek, an investment firm based in Singapore that specializes in restructuring, growth capital, and divestment deals, announced that it had bought Element Materials Technology, a well-known company that offers testing, inspection, and certification services. Temasek's main goals are restructuring, providing growth capital, and getting rid of companies. The acquisition is meant to be a big deal in the TIC industry and a key step in the Group's efforts to grow. These two goals will both be reached.
