Specialist requirements
What are Specialist requirements?
A defined customer group needs particular workflows, controls or capabilities that materially affect whether a solution fits its work.
How Specialist requirements work
Specific requirements can create an opening for a focused offer, while increasing the work required to serve that customer. A niche label alone is insufficient.
