They also provide inventory management services and supervise non-capitalized assets and stock items. They provide companies with different practices, strategies, and technologies required to manage and analyze customer interactions and data throughout the customer lifecycle. This software helps lower the costs of these different field processes with better efficiency. Therefore, many enterprises would adopt the FSM software for better performance and increased organizational productivity.

The service segment is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR of 14.1% during the forecast period. The FSM solutions are implemented in organizations for assistance in workforce management. The software carries out the management of on-field workers. Thus, the adoption of the FSM among end-use industries is expected to increase.

When FSM is implemented in an organization, it supports its employees and the organization concerning different aspects such as employee performance, work status, and customer and inventory management. Instead of field surveys, the software does the required work and provides updated information. It also offers training to the workers.

The FSM solutions, when installed in the enterprise, provide consultation services to the organization. The software assembles all the data and delivers it as required. Based on the data gathered, the software advises the organization to improve its performance and efficiency.

Furthermore, it reduces human efforts and saves time since all the data gathered on a real-time basis is analyzed, and the necessary information is given to the organization. Therefore, it leads to better efficiency and reduced human efforts. Hence, its adoption across end-use industries is expected to increase.
