Tarig,

I am not quite sure what you mean, but it sounds like you're suggesting 
that different pieces of your network are fragmented across different 
connections to different ISPs.

Depending on what exactly the problem is, the solution would be either 
(a) to get a provider-independent IP block from your RIR and route-peer 
with each of these ISPs in order to announce independent address space 
that travels with you wherever you buy connectivity, and/or (b) some 
sort of Layer 2 or 3 tunneling like VPN or MPLS, if I'm not 
understanding the problem correctly.
