General Office Supplies

The Texas Parks & Wildlife Department (TPWD) awarded a term contract to Staples Contract & Commercial LLC for general office supplies, specifically focusing on Pentel EnerGel Deluxe RTX Retractable Gel Pens. The contract, identified as 615-C1, was executed on August 8, 2025, with a performance period extending through December 31, 2027. The initial purchase order involves 4 dozen blue ink, needle tip, medium point gel pens at a unit price of $15.35 per dozen, resulting in a total line item value of $61.40.

The contract will be fulfilled through the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts - Statewide Procurement Division, with delivery scheduled to the TPWD headquarters located at 4200 Smith School Road in Austin, Texas. The term contract provides a streamlined procurement mechanism for office supplies, with a specified 3-day delivery window and leverages the state's tax-exempt status under the Texas Tax Code. The cumulative contract value is documented as sixty-one dollars, though this appears to represent only the initial purchase rather than the full contract's potential spending authorization.
