Your industry is configuration, not a different system
The businesses below run on the same model: one job, one party, one invoice, one ledger entry. What differs is the rate card that prices the work, the registers that expire, the documents that get issued and the capabilities that are switched on. That is why a new kind of business needs configuration rather than a fork of the product.
