IMPACT OF COVID-19

The current COVID-19 outbreak has had a significant impact on the global economy. Because of the rapid spread of the sickness, a few countries are seeking to take drastic measures to control the spread of the illness. The extreme procedures implemented to stop the spread of the illnesses have limited organisations globally involved in Space Launch Services programmes. The pandemic has had a negative impact on companies in the Space Launch Services Market due to postponements in proposed satellite projects. Organizations make efforts to recover from financial disasters. However, government associations throughout the world will appear beneficial for boosting the Space Launch Services Market in the future.

Payload, launch platform, service type, launch vehicle, end-user, and area are the many segments of the space launch services sector. Small and big satellites, manned spacecraft, freight, testing probes, and strotallites are the payload categories. There are three types of launch platforms: land, air, and water. It is divided into two types of services: pre-launch and post-launch. It is divided into two categories based on the launch vehicle: tiny and heavy. The end-user group is classified into two categories: government and military, and commercial. It is examined regionally across the United States, Russia, Other European Countries, China, India, Japan, New Zealand, and the Rest of the World.

In terms of payload, the small satellites and cargo segment has the largest market share in 2021. The commercial uses of satellites in communication and Earth observation for accurate and relevant data collection provide greater growth potential in the satellite market.

The land platform has the biggest market share for space launch services, followed by the sea platform. During the projection period, however, enhanced R&D activities and innovations in sea launch for alternate launch methods via moveable launch platforms are expected to grow. In comparison to other platforms, the land platform is more cost-effective and technologically advanced.

The service type segment is divided into two parts: pre-launch and post-launch services. Pre-launch services have a substantial market share and will maintain this position during the forecast period.

The launch vehicle segment is further subdivided into small vehicles capable of lifting less than 300 tonnes and large vehicles capable of lifting more than 300 tonnes. Heavy launch vehicles have the largest market share and will continue to dominate the industry due to their use from the beginning and larger presence.

The end-user market is separated into two categories: government and military, and commercial. Because of rising investments in exploration activities, particularly in probe missions for military applications and manned spacecraft for future deep space exploration programmes, the government and military sectors dominate the market. As the commercialization of numerous satellites and cargo activities grows, the commercial segment is the fastest-increasing section. The segment's growth is being driven by increased communication and earth observation satellites for precise and relevant data collecting. In terms of launch service providers, the United States has the largest market share in the commercial segment, with European countries coming in second. This is due to the presence of the first launch vehicle family in Russia, as a result of the country's early development.

Since the research reports we provide play a crucial role in any company’s decision-making process, therefore we at SNS Insider always believe that we should choose the best method which gives us results closer to reality. This allows us to reach at a stage wherein we can provide our clients best and accurate investment to output ratio.

Each report that we prepare takes a timeframe of 350-400 business hours for production. Starting from the selection of titles through a couple of in-depth brain storming session to the final QC process before uploading our titles on our website we dedicate around 350 working hours. The titles are selected based on their current market cap and the foreseen CAGR and growth.

 

The 5 steps process:

Step 1: Secondary Research:

Secondary Research or Desk Research is as the name suggests is a research process wherein, we collect data through the readily available information. In this process we use various paid and unpaid databases which our team has access to and gather data through the same. This includes examining of listed companies’ annual reports, Journals, SEC filling etc. Apart from this our team has access to various associations across the globe across different industries. Lastly, we have exchange relationships with various university as well as individual libraries.

Secondary Research

Step 2: Primary Research

When we talk about primary research, it is a type of study in which the researchers collect relevant data samples directly, rather than relying on previously collected data.  This type of research is focused on gaining content specific facts that can be sued to solve specific problems. Since the collected data is fresh and first hand therefore it makes the study more accurate and genuine.

We at SNS Insider have divided Primary Research into 2 parts.

Part 1 wherein we interview the KOLs of major players as well as the upcoming ones across various geographic regions. This allows us to have their view over the market scenario and acts as an important tool to come closer to the accurate market numbers. As many as 45 paid and unpaid primary interviews are taken from both the demand and supply side of the industry to make sure we land at an accurate judgement and analysis of the market.

This step involves the triangulation of data wherein our team analyses the interview transcripts, online survey responses and observation of on filed participants. The below mentioned chart should give a better understanding of the part 1 of the primary interview.

Primary Research

Part 2: In this part of primary research the data collected via secondary research and the part 1 of the primary research is validated with the interviews from individual consultants and subject matter experts.

Consultants are those set of people who have at least 12 years of experience and expertise within the industry whereas Subject Matter Experts are those with at least 15 years of experience behind their back within the same space. The data with the help of two main processes i.e., FGDs (Focused Group Discussions) and IDs (Individual Discussions). This gives us a 3rd party nonbiased primary view of the market scenario making it a more dependable one while collation of the data pointers.

Step 3: Data Bank Validation
