What's new on ESBD for me today?

Where it comes from

Six Texas public sources, one vendor key

Vendors are matched on the 11-digit Texas taxpayer number from the Comptroller's 3.5 million active franchise-tax records — so an incumbent on an LBB contract, a DIR reseller and a Form 1295 filer resolve to the same company.
