Executive Summary
In the next five years, computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) software CEOs will face a period of intensified market change, as enterprise asset management (EAM) convergence accelerates, AI-native platforms gain traction, and buyer expectations evolve around scalability, integration and time-to-value. Competitive pressure in the mid-market will rise, driven by enterprise vendors moving downmarket and the growing demand for unified operational platforms. This report provides strategic guidance for CMMS executives navigating this transition, identifying the long-term trends, risks and opportunities shaping the future of the market. Readers will gain insight into shifting buyer priorities, emerging technology disruptors, evolving routes to differentiation and the strategic decisions vendors must make to stay competitive in a maturing and increasingly dynamic landscape.About the Authors
