Packaged IT solutions
-
But, in the fast food example, a lot of chefs and research went into getting the formula down as to how to make tasty food, cheap, that could be replicated easily.

I think my main point to @Ambarishrh was - Do you want to be another packaged supplier competing on the same feature-set and price?
-
I would love to provide solutions as per clients requirements. The resturant example makes me want to think that I want to be the chef not the billing guy!

Yeah, but at Burger King (at least in the UK), you can customise your package. So I get the cheeseburger meal but ask for it without gherkins.

They lost a lawsuit in the US and were not allowed to claim "your way" anymore because they were actually limited to the packages that they offered (although some were unlisted.) They used to refuse to customize and some vegetarian group sued them for claiming it was your way when even something simple like leaving off ingredients wasn't an option. US courts agreed, now they are the very definition of "packaged" meals (at least in the US.)
Maybe they like UK customers more and actually allow you to customize.

That being said, I've had many local Burger Kings break the rules and customize for me. But they were officially not allowed to.
