As per a study made by MarketsandMarkets, the global market for embedded systems is expected to grow from $86.4 billion in 2020 to $116.2 billion by 2025, at a CAGR of 6.1%. This growth is expected to be driven by the increasing demand for embedded systems in various industries, including automotive, healthcare, and consumer electronics.

Value engineering can provide several benefits when applied to IoT and embedded systems, including:

Cost reduction: Value engineering can help identify unnecessary features, simplify designs, and reduce the number of components used in IoT and embedded systems. By doing so, manufacturers can reduce the cost of these devices without compromising their performance or reliability.

Improved efficiency: By optimizing the design of IoT and embedded systems, value engineering can improve their efficiency, reduce power consumption, and extend their battery life. This can result in devices that are more reliable, cost-effective, and offer longer operational lifetimes.

Enhanced functionality: Value engineering can help identify and incorporate new features and functions into IoT and embedded systems that can improve their performance and usability. This can lead to better user experiences and increased satisfaction with these devices.

Faster time-to-market: By simplifying designs, reducing the number of components used, and streamlining the manufacturing process, value engineering can help manufacturers bring new IoT and embedded systems to market faster. This can help manufacturers stay ahead of the competition and meet the demands of customers more quickly.

Improved quality: Value engineering can help manufacturers improve the quality of IoT and embedded systems by identifying and addressing potential design flaws and improving the reliability of these devices. This can help reduce the risk of product recalls, improve customer satisfaction, and enhance brand reputation.

Value engineering can therefore provide several benefits when applied to IoT and embedded systems, including cost reduction, improved efficiency, enhanced functionality, faster time-to-market, and improved quality. These benefits can help manufacturers stay competitive, meet customer demands, and improve profitability.
