Industry Specialists
In some industries, the key sourcing problems are mission-critical

We don't think there's any way that a broad-based vendor or an
ERP vendor can match their capabilities or return the value they
return. To get software that was remotely competitive, the broad-based
vendor would have to learn how those problems work, build software
that addresses them, get the software out, test it on willing guinea
pigs, and improve it.
That takes time, and it takes resources, and these days, the broad-based
vendors are reluctant to take on new investments.
A sampling of vendors who have special capabilities for a particular
industry is shown below.
