Tires and Tubes

The State of Texas, Department of Public Safety (Agency 405) awarded a term contract to Bridgestone Americas Tire Operations, LLC for the procurement of tires. The contract, designated 26207283, was awarded on November 4, 2025, with a completion date of June 30, 2027. The prime contractor, headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee, will supply tires to locations within the United States. The contract value totals $629.28, representing a single tire procurement with a unit price of $629.28 under National Institute of Governmental Purchasing Code 86305.

The purchase order was processed through the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts—Statewide Procurement Division. As a state procurement, the contract benefits from exemption under Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4), whereby the State of Texas claims exemption from Federal Excise Taxes and state and city sales taxes due to the property being secured for exclusive use of the State of Texas or a Texas political subdivision. The relatively modest contract value and single-unit scope indicate this represents a discrete procurement requirement rather than a comprehensive supply agreement.
