BIS research is a market intelligence company which identifies the current trends in the industry. It
was founded in the year 2014 with a mission to be a leader in the market research industry. The
company is in the growing phase of its business cycle and is constantly trying to innovate and
maintain its position in the industry. Market research is a very dynamic filed and holds a great deal of
potential in the near future.
BIS research is still a small firm as compared to the giants like Nielsen and IMRB, among others.
Every firm requires the market research for carrying out activities that include business expansion,
product launch, entering into new geography, strategic decisions, competitor analysis, and many
others. Companies either outsource the research reports or they have their own team of their research
which makes these research reports. These reports are highly valued and provide a overall or 360
degree overview of the market being studied. The report can be customized according to the client
need.
During the course of internship, I worked on the three reports GLOBAL AUTOMOTIVE SENSORS
MARKET, GLOBAL SMALL CALIBER AMMUNITION MARKET and GLOBAL 3D METAL
PRITING MARKET particularly of U.S.
The three reports were in-depth analysis of the wherein I got to learn the various important aspects of
the report and the proper way to understand and view the market in those pages of report. The work
included working on the Company profiling chapter of both the reports wherein the leading players
are identified and their profiling is done. This includes overview of the company, SWOT analysis and
after that a database is prepared and we start pitching the clients through emails and cold calling. After
that Leads are generated where we fulfill all the requirement of the clients and if they have any
specific requirements then we also provide customize solutions.
In India, Market research industry is about 40 years old and has shown great grown and
development in this span of time. The research expertise that is available in India is amongst
the best in the world. Also, the methodologies used in India are comparable with the best in
the world. There has been growth in this industry beyond the traditional FMCG research
which include the media measurement, auto, and telecom and healthcare sectors. The prime
reason being the increased spending by these sectors on market research.
The industry holds a vast number of players. For example, there's Nielsen in FMCG, GfK in
consumer durables, IDC and GfK in mobile phones, and Gartner and IDC in computers, to
name a few sectors. The other big players are ACN ORG-Marg, IMRB, TNS, Synovate,
Indica, Quantum Market Research and Research-International, among others. The use of
market research is done greatly by MNCs, however now professional Indian companies are
also starting to use it. India still remains the popular destination for the MNC based research
agencies since there is untapped potential of new sets of consumers with an opportunity to
serve huge population. In India, cost remains a major challenge for the industry.

DESCRIPTION OF WORK
The Project is undertaken to enhance the business opportunities for BIS
Research and to maintain relation with our B2B Global clients and involves an
overall learning of business environment of research reports segment with its
primary focus to deal with the global clients and pitch the reports from the
product and services offered by us and ultimately, getting to the skin of areas of
improvement and areas of excellence.
Being associated with a startup the company treats interns as employees and
have full faith in us and the work is given with responsibility .As BIS is a
global market research and advisory company which focuses on
those emerging trends in technology which are likely to disrupt
the dynamics of the market.
The work focuses on the business development aspect of the
business of BIS Research. Business Development aims at
preparation of potential growth opportunities, and the support
and monitoring of the implementation of growth opportunities,
printing. The process of metal 3D printing is now paving its way into
the mainstream manufacturing industry. Owing to the gradual
developments occurring in the field of technology as a whole, metal
3D printing is now proving to be an indispensable part of the
manufacturing sector. Factors like increased government funding
towards 3D printing in various countries and customizability are
driving the overall market growth in this domain. Although, the
market is still relatively fragmented, mainstay industrial players are
resorting to mergers, acquisitions and product launches imbibing the
latest technologies in an attempt to increase their overall market
share.
The metal 3D printing market is expected to grow beyond threefold
from the year 2015 up till 2020. Such high growth is expected as the
prices of metal 3D printers are expected to decrease due to
availability of enhanced metal 3D printing technology. With the
passage of time, metal 3D printing is expected to permeate to reach
to the domestic consumer level, driving the sales to boost further.
Expiration of patents of a key technology in metal 3D printing is
expected to further enhance the scope of R&D in this field, thereby
contributing further towards the decrease in price of metal 3D
printers.
The market size of metal 3D printing is expected to grow to
$2,240.28 million by the year 2020 at double digit CAGR. This
increase can be attributed to the widespread acceptability of metal
3D printing in major industrial verticals like Aerospace & Defense,
Healthcare and Automotive sector. Up till the year 2011, high initial
set-up cost, non-availability of qualified metals to be used as raw
material along with other restraints inhibited the overall growth of
metal 3D printing. However, with the advent of technology the
applications surrounding metal 3D printing have evolved, as can be
seen from the growth that this industry has incurred from the year
2013, when the revenue was less than half of what it is expected to
be by the end of year 2015.
