The global computer aided dispatch market size is expected to reach USD 4.31 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 11.3% from 2025 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The increasing need for public safety and technological advancements are projected to drive the computer aided dispatch (CAD) market growth. Computer-aided dispatch technology is used for ensuring safe and secure dispatch operations. Factors such as continued rollout of networking and communication infrastructure, advances in communication technology, and national public safety initiatives are also expected to trigger the rapid growth of the market.
Threats associated with criminal activities and natural calamities are creating a need for efficient emergency response systems and dispatch operations. As such, CAD technology has to cater to various dispatch operation needs in law enforcement, healthcare, and life sciences industries, transportation, and power & utility sectors. Accordingly, the latest CAD solutions are designed to support various applications such as deliver call management, dispatch unit management, reporting and analysis, and intelligent mapping. These applications are crucial for mission-critical situations.
Rising mergers and acquisitions trends by key market players are anticipated to boost the market growth over the forecast period. Moreover, the North America regional market held the largest revenue share in 2019. North America boasts a developed communication and network infrastructure. Also, the growing deployment of the 5G network is estimated to provide seamless connectivity during emergency services. Additionally, the region is home to key CAD solution providers such as Motorola Solutions, Inc.; CentralSquare Technologies; and Avtec Inc. This is providing an impetus growth to the North America market.
Furthermore, rapidly surging government investments on deploying CAD solutions to provide high safety to their public in emerging countries is estimated to propel the market growth from 2020 to 2027. Moreover, increasing consolidation of Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs) in the U.S. is expected to restrict the overall market growth during the next seven years. Further, the COVID-19 outbreak has augmented the demand for health emergency services across the globe. Also, the federal governments across various countries such as U.S., U.K., Germany, and Italy are making massive investments to strengthen their healthcare facilities in order to provide effective services in emergencies. As a result, it is expected to fuel the adoption of computer-aided dispatch solutions over the forecast period.
