Houston, TX, September 29, 2009- Visionary Integration Professionals LLC (VIP), a global information technology solutions provider, has been awarded a master service agreement by the Texas Department of Information Resources (DIR) to provide technology solutions to meet the business needs of Texas government. This accomplishment significantly contributes to VIP’s commitment to expand its presence in the State of Texas.
