A system and method that standardizes, automates, and facilitates the process of identifying, evaluating, selecting, and managing product and service resources for both individual and business resource users within specific industries. In one embodiment, this resource management system includes a web-based or other computer server with at least one database containing data related to product and service resources within a specific industry that can be searched and queried by the user, and at least one resource management system application that contains business rules and industry-specific or user-based criteria, qualitative and/or quantitative resource evaluation standards, and/or other guidelines or reference points, that, when applied to the product and service resource data, generates a resource-related selection, recommendation, rating, ranking, descriptive result, or other action or result that helps the user understand the resource options and the relative merits of the resource options for the user's particular needs, based in large part upon resource criteria chosen by the user, so that the user can make intelligent, informed, efficient, and timely decisions in sourcing, selecting, and managing these product and service resources. In this embodiment, the combination of unbiased industry-specific database information, unbiased industry-specific criteria and/or evaluation standards, and industry-specific search and querying capabilities, accessible on demand by the user, provides the user with a more accurate, precise, higher quality result that is reliable, immediately actionable, and can save the user time, money, and undesirable product or service performance results and/or customer service experiences. In another embodiment, this resource management system may further include software components that provide interactive communication and/or transactional capabilities for users and/or providers of the product and service resources, thus further facilitating the resource management process for both resource users and resource providers in a specific industry.
