I haven't seen anything like that, but can tell you that for most corporate
deployments, what will make the most difference is your understanding of BGP
and redistribution between it and the usual IGP suspects of EIGRP and OSPF
(lots of route tagging; possible use of communities with the carrier).

Lots of places don't have the carrier participating in their IGP directly,
and choose to run BGP at each site between themselves and their carrier(s).
If you are running OSPF and have backdoor routes between sites and decide to
have the carrier "speak" OSPF to your routers, I've read that that scenario
can cause serious issues.
