Vehicle Rental Services

The State of Texas awarded a term contract for vehicle rental services to The Hertz Corporation, with the contracting organization identified as Texas Tech Health Science Center - 739. The contract was awarded on November 2, 2025, with a cumulative contract value of $173.28. The purchase order documentation reflects a single line item procurement under National Institute of Governmental Purchasing (NIGP) Code 97514, with one unit ordered at a unit price of $173.28. The Hertz Corporation, headquartered at 8501 Williams Road, Estero, Florida, serves as the prime contractor for this engagement.

The contract period of performance reflects an award date of November 2, 2025, with a stated completion date of September 15, 2025, indicating a data entry discrepancy or administrative notation in the contract record. As a state agency purchase, the transaction is exempt from federal excise taxes and state and local sales taxes under Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4), with shipment designated to the United States. The modest contract value and single-unit structure suggest this may represent an individual purchase order executed against an existing term agreement rather than a comprehensive vehicle rental program.
