About Purchasing off DIR Contract DIR-SDD-786
All of DIR’s cooperative contracts for IT commodity and services have been competitively awarded and have met all of the State’s procurement requirements. Governmental entities simply contact Voice Products, Inc, request a quote and issue a purchase order directly to Voice Products, Inc. DIR has determined Voice Products, Inc. represents a “best value”. Buying DIR eliminates the needs for competitive bid.
Texas State statutes provide authority for local governments to purchase any IT commodity item included in a DIR contract without the need to issue an individual solicitation. Specifically, Section 2157.006 (b), Texas Government Code states that if a local government purchases an IT commodity or service from a DIR contract, the procurement satisfies any state law requiring the local government to seek competitive bids. In addition, Section 271.083(b), Local Government Code states that when a local government purchases an item under a state contract, it satisfies any state law requiring local governments to seek competitive bids for the purchase of the item.

February 4, 2008, by Andy Opsahl | Reprinted with permission from Texas Technology Magazine Interlocal Cooperation Contract – “IT’s not just for Texas anymore! Excerpt from “Spotlight on DIR”
“Even if you’re in a smaller state, you can buy off the Texas DIR contracts, and we’re really trying to build that because it actually benefits the state of Texas. If we drive more volume, then we can drive prices down - everybody wins,” Reed said.
Occasionally other states are interested in purchasing off of DIR contracts, she said.
Reed said proof of DIR contracts’ value lies in the fact that 80 percent of governments using DIR contracts do so voluntarily. The DIR mandates that all state agencies use the contracts, but local governments can go it alone.
“That’s really the best feedback,” Reed said. “If these weren’t good deals, those local governments wouldn’t be using them.”
Many public entities outside of Texas may also buy through DIR. Go to the Out-of-State Customers page for more information.
