When you go to a new car dealership to buy a new car, the dealer wants to sell you a car of their manufacture. That is the only way they get paid for their effort. They must sell you a model from their inventory if they are to succeed.

When you go to an automobile broker, the broker is paid to find you a car. If the broker cannot find a car that meets your complete requirements, you do not buy the car. The broker earns her money on your satisfaction. This is a lot like shopping for engineering services.

The major automation manufacturers and a great many distributors offer system integration services. These are usually great sales or distribution organizations. However, since we are all highly specialized in the world today, it follows that they may not provide engineering at the same level of excellence as their core competency. These organizations can only offer you what they sell for two reasons: this is what they know, and this is how they succeed.
