1 Research Scope & BIS Methodology
1.1 Scope of the Report
This report gives a comprehensive study of the global CubeSat market. The report focuses largely on
providing market information for CubeSat, covering different segments including size, subsystem, end
user, and geography. Further, the market estimated in different sections of the report considered “2018-
2022” as the forecast period.
1.2 Global CubeSat Market Research Methodology
The research methodology design adopted for this specific study includes a mix of data collected from
primary and secondary sources. The research study exhaustively uses both primary sources (in-house
experts, industry leaders and market players) and secondary sources (a host of paid and unpaid databases)
along with analytical tools to build forecast and predictive models.
Primary Data Sources
The primary sources involve the industry experts from the small satellite industry including the suppliers,
device manufacturers, and distributors, among others. Primary resources such as CEOs, vice presidents,
marketing directors, and technology & innovation directors, among others have been interviewed to
obtain and verify both qualitative and quantitative aspects of this research study.
The research includes interviews with participants throughout the value chain. Besides this, online surveys
of the participants were conducted to understand the demand from Original Equipment Manufacturers
(OEMs) and other stakeholders in the market. An extensive questionnaire was shared to get insights from
the experts who didn’t participate in discussions. In some cases where information was not available,
Delphi method was used to arrive at mutual consent with BIS consultants.
The Key Data Points Taken From Primary Sources Include:
• Validation and triangulation of all the numbers and graphs
• Validation of reports segmentation and key qualitative findings
• Understanding the competitive landscape
• Current and proposed production values of a particular product by market players
• Validation of the numbers of the various markets for market type
• Percentage split of individual markets for geographical analysis
Secondary Data Sources
The research study involves the usage of extensive secondary sources such as databases, company
websites, and annual reports, among others.
