As for vendors, I presume you're talking about non-airport employees who deliver goods to the airport.
I like the setup at MSP as well. DFW is an interesting one too because the way the terminals/concourses were designed. I think concourse D may be the one exception, but I haven't entered/exited there. DTW also has a number of screening locations depending on what floor you're on, plus there is the Westin checkpoint.
FWIW, ORD has a special screening area for crew, employees, etc., but it is in a location outside of public view. IIRC, it is in the area between the G and H/K concourse.
