Market Share

IMA's report provides a complete tabulation of Navy ship repair and marine equipment repair contracts over the past five years. The data are arranged by contractor and show the value of the initial contract and subsequent modifications/ change orders. Market share per- centages are calculated for each of the five years—showing each con- tractor's percentage of the market.

Significance of the

Information

The ten-year forecast will be use- ful in long-term business planning.

Ship repair firms can identify future business for which there will be only local competition vs. business for which competition will be coast- wide. Equipment manufacturers can identify the number of mainte- nance and modernization availabili- ties by ship type. Both ship repair firms and equipment manufacturers can assess their market share over the past five years.
