Qualitative and quantitative insights were obtained by interviewing supply-side and demand-side stakeholders during the primary research process. The supply-side sources comprised CEOs, CTOs, VPs of Product Development, chiefs of engineering, and commercial directors from interior design software developers, CAD/CAM solution providers, and technology OEMs respectively. In addition to procurement leads from architecture and design studios, licensed architects, certified interior designers, design firm principals, real estate developers, and furniture manufacturing executives constituted demand-side sources. Market segmentation was validated, product roadmap timelines were confirmed, and insights regarding software adoption patterns, pricing strategies, cloud migration trends, and integration dynamics with building information modeling (BIM) systems were garnered through primary research.
