General Office Supplies

The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), specifically the Odessa District, has awarded a term contract (Contract 615-C1) to Staples Contract & Commercial LLC for general office supplies. The contract, effective from December 9, 2025, to December 31, 2027, is initially documented with a purchase order for a Tru Red Large Soft Cover Project Planner Notebook (black, item TR54986) at a unit price of $5.37. The contract is issued through the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts' Statewide Procurement Division and will be performed with delivery to the TxDOT Odessa District office located in Lubbock, Texas.

The procurement is tax-exempt under Texas Tax Code, Section 151.309(4), with specific delivery requirements mandating shipment between 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m., Monday through Thursday, excluding state and federal holidays. The initial purchase order, numbered 26063521, specifies a delivery date of December 12, 2025, with freight prepaid and invoiced separately on a FOB Destination basis. While the contract's cumulative value is listed as five dollars, this appears to be a placeholder, and the actual contract value is likely to be substantially higher given the term contract's duration and broad office supply scope.
