Middle East and Africa Public Safety and Government Agencies Mission-Critical Communication (MCX) Market

Market Introduction

The Middle East and Africa public safety and government agencies mission critical communication (MCX) market is a highly fragmented market with the presence of considerable regional and local players providing numerous solutions for companies investing in the market arena. Citizens expect 24 hours per day service and communication from government agencies. They desire easy access to correct, up-to-date information and a smooth connection with the appropriate government officials. They also want services to be delivered swiftly, effectively, and transparently and problems to be resolved quickly, effectively, and openly. Many government agencies still rely on outdated communications infrastructures, such as leased PBX systems or Centrex-type systems. These outdated systems do not match today's high standards. The systems are rigid, difficult to manage, and expensive to maintain, leading to slower response times and decreased production. Providing accurate information about government priorities, programs, and actions to citizens helps establish government legitimacy. Governments are developing and maintaining excellent communication systems to be respectable players in public spheres. The above factors enable them to assess residents' needs and preferences and promote a deliberative public arena for multi-stakeholder involvement, informed policy debate, and emergency development efficacy. All of these issues propel the demand for critical communication systems among government organizations.

During the COVID-19 emergency, various containment measures taken by the government, such as travel restrictions, factory shutdown, and lockdowns, have hampered the manufacturing sector in this region. Furthermore, containment measures have also impacted the ongoing energy and power, infrastructure, and logistics projects. Thus, a slowdown in various industrial and commercial activities has impacted the demand of mission critical communication. In 2011–2012, the leading markets such as the UAE assigned frequencies for public or private safety LTE after the deployment of a private network by the Qatar Ministry of Interiors. Pilots or early contracts followed in 2016 or 2017, but no widespread deployments have been announced since then. However, following the maturing of Middle East and Africa MCPTT/MCX standards, there is now a renewed effort to bring public safety communications into the broadband era with more integrated hybrid commercial or private, narrowband or broadband solutions.

Market Overview and Dynamics

The public safety and government agencies mission critical communication (MCX) market in Middle East and Africa is expected to grow from US$ 358.08 million in 2021 to US$ 604.01 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 7.8% from 2021 to 2028. Mission-critical IoT is different than IoT. Both use similar technologies, such as sensors, cloud platforms, networking, and analytics, but that's where the similarities end. Today's mission-critical IoT demands unwavering security, reliability—even in severe conditions—and the ability to function with minimal or no human involvement. A mission-critical IoT device will operate in the industry, and any applicable industry or government laws dictate these criteria. The Internet of Things is no longer limited to consumer-based intelligent home products or wearable fitness devices for personal usage. It is increasingly finding its way into previously unconnected businesses and applications. It will be utilized in smart grids to automate energy distribution in autonomous vehicles for things, such as automatic emergency detection and independent vehicle accident prevention, and to enable remote machinery and remote surgery. Automation is one of several elements fuelling this proliferation nowadays. Its application in mission-critical IoT has increased rapidly as the cost of automation has decreased. This transformation is most evident on the manufacturing floor. The automated system will harness all the information to learn and adapt to new demands in a genuine, smart factory. The mission-critical IoT is also being propelled by significant technology advancements over the last ten years.
