Vehicle Rental Services

The State of Texas, through Texas A&M Engineering Extension Service (Agency 716), awarded a term contract to The Hertz Corporation for vehicle rental services. The prime contractor, headquartered at 8501 Williams Road, Estero, Florida, was selected under contract designation 26203074. The contract was awarded on November 7, 2025, with a cumulative value of $114.96. The specific line item procured consists of one unit designated as item "C" under National Institute of Governmental Purchasing Code 97514, priced at $114.96 per unit.

The purchase order was issued under a state and local sales tax exemption for tangible personal property secured for exclusive use by the State of Texas or a Texas political subdivision. The stated completion date of September 15, 2025, predates the award date, suggesting this may reflect a retroactive order or administrative processing adjustment. The order is exempt from Federal Excise Taxes except as otherwise specified in the underlying contract terms, and the State of Texas claims exemption from all state and city sales taxes pursuant to Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4).
