General Office Supplies

The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) awarded a term contract (26000149) to Staples Contract & Commercial LLC for general office supplies. The contract, issued by TxDOT's Odessa District, covers a performance period from September 3, 2025, to December 31, 2027. The initial documented purchase involves Paper Mate Profile Retractable Ballpoint Pens, specifically one package of bold point pens with assorted ink colors, priced at $7.02.

The contract appears to be a statewide procurement managed through the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts' Statewide Procurement Division. Delivery specifications mandate shipments between 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m., Monday through Thursday, excluding state and federal holidays, with FOB Destination shipping terms. While the cumulative contract value is listed as seven dollars, this likely represents a minimal reporting threshold, and the actual contract value is potentially substantially higher given the term contract's scope for general office supplies across the TxDOT organization.
