INTEGRATION CONTRACTORS

The tremendous need for higher operating efficiency and global connectivity has prompted many companies to utilize Integration Contractors, businesses that design and build computing systems for their clients. Some Integration Contractors combine hardware and software products from multiple vendors, while other firms will create more expensive, customized solutions that may require original programming.

Success Story


We worked with a leading provider of network access solutions for mobile networks.  Their solutions are integrated into a client’s existing network to provide secure mobile access for all corporate applications and services. The prior insurance company had not adequately serviced the client to review their operations and controls.  Vira’s team worked with the agent and the client to develop recommendations for a comprehensive risk management program, which won us the account.
