The growth of the laboratory proficiency testing market is primarily driven by stringent safety and quality regulations for food and pharmaceutical products, increasing focus on water testing, and increasing number of laboratory accreditations. However, the need for proficiency testing scheme harmonization and the dearth of skilled professionals pose potential challenges to the market landscape. The growth of the pharmaceutical proficiency testing market is driven by the growth of the pharmaceuticals market, the surge in the generics market, stringent quality control in the production of pharmaceutical products, and the emerging biosimilars market, while the major restraining factor is cost and time-intensive drug manufacturing process.

Driver:
Stringent safety and quality regulations for food and pharmaceutical products
Growing
complexities in the supply chain of food and pharmaceutical products, rising
use of economic lack of adoption of proper hygiene, growing instances of
adulteration, and sanitation practices during production, transportation, and
storage, lack of awareness about allergens, growing instances of
cross-contamination, and non-compliance with labeling laws have increased the
incidence of contamination of final products, which in turn are responsible for
large-scale outbreaks of foodborne illnesses in consumers. This has raised
severe concerns among producers, regulatory authorities, end consumers, and
other industry stakeholders.
Opportunity:
Growth opportunities in emerging countries
Emerging
economies such as China, India, and South Korea are expected to offer
significant growth opportunities for players operating in the laboratory
proficiency testing market. This can primarily be attributed to the presence of
less stringent regulatory policies, low labor costs, and high growth in their
respective pharmaceutical and food sectors.
These
countries are attracting pharmaceutical companies not only because of the
low-cost manufacturing advantage but also due to the high and growing incidence
of chronic and infectious diseases, rising disposable income levels, improving
access to healthcare services, and implementation of favorable government
policies. The growing presence of global as well as local pharmaceutical and
biopharmaceutical companies in these countries is, in turn, driving the demand
for proficiency testing services.
Market Segmentation: -
Based on industry, the laboratory proficiency
testing market is segmented into clinical diagnostics, microbiology,
pharmaceuticals, food & animal feed, water, biologics, environmental,
commercial beverages, cosmetics, cannabis/opioids, dietary supplements, and
nutraceuticals. In 2022, the clinical diagnostics segment accounted for the
largest share of the laboratory proficiency testing market. Factors such as the
rising demand for early and accurate disease diagnosis, advancements in
clinical diagnostic techniques, rising government initiatives to improve the
quality and affordability of clinical diagnostic testing procedures, increasing
incidence of target diseases, and growing public-private investments as
well as research funding & grants to develop innovative laboratory testing
procedures, are driving the growth of the clinical diagnostics segment.
Based on technology, the global proficiency testing
market is segmented by various technologies, including chromatography,
spectrophotometry, immunoassays, PCR, cell culture, and other techniques. In
2022, the cell culture segment held the largest market share in the Laboratory
Proficiency Testing market. However, it is anticipated that the chromatography
segment will experience the highest compound annual growth rate (CAGR) during
the forecast period. This can be attributed to the increasing use of chromatographic
techniques in water, pharmaceutical, and food industries.
Regional Analysis:
The laboratory proficiency testing market is
segmented into five primary regions: North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin
America, and the Middle East & Africa. In 2022, North America held the
largest market share. However, it's expected that the Asia Pacific (APAC)
market will experience the most rapid growth throughout the forecast period.
This growth is mainly attributed to the rising demand for outsourcing
analytical testing services in countries such as China, India, Japan, and
Singapore. In addition, governments and regulatory bodies across APAC countries
are tightening regulations to ensure the accuracy and reliability of testing
and measurements. These factors are supporting the growth of the adoption of
laboratory proficiency tests in the region.
