Vehicle Rental Services

The State of Texas, through the Department of Family and Protective Services (Agency 530), awarded a term contract to The Hertz Corporation for vehicle rental services. The prime contractor, based in Estero, Florida, was selected to provide rental vehicles under Contract 975-C1, with an initial purchase order issued on November 14, 2025. The contract was processed through the Comptroller of Public Accounts' Statewide Procurement Division and is classified under National Institute of Governmental Purchasing (NIGP) Code 97514.

The initial purchase order (PO No. 26203181) reflects a single line item valued at $38.32, representing one unit of vehicle rental services. The order is subject to Texas sales tax exemption as the vehicles will be used exclusively by the State of Texas. While the award date is documented as November 14, 2025, the completion date listed as September 15, 2025, appears inconsistent with standard contract chronology and may reflect a data entry discrepancy. The contract structure and nominal initial order value suggest this term contract establishes a framework agreement for ongoing vehicle rental services to support the Department of Family and Protective Services' operational requirements.
