How is Booz Allen a multi-sided business model besides the sort of co-creation that happens in most any consulting business these days?

Alex, Not really sure if all above are multi-sided. But I was curious of the Business model of Fair Trade, I guessed that they bring together buyers and sellers who want a fair price paid. So I thought that Fair Trade is multi-sided.
Booz Allen Hamilton I guess allows consultants to join their network and gain access to their network. Not sure where I read this though.
I have been seeing lots of successful business in India that are multi-sided. Such as Kyra in the hospitality Industry, where they bring together upcoming performers with audiences along with food. A pre-used vehicle buying and selling firm, which got close to 0.5 million funding.
Also I was interested in the recently IPO'ed Micro Finance success story form Sequoia capital - SKS Micro Finance.
