Vehicle Rental Services

The State of Texas, through the Department of Family and Protective Services (Agency 530), has awarded a term contract to The Hertz Corporation for vehicle rental services. The Hertz Corporation, headquartered at 8501 Williams Road, Estero, Florida, will provide rental vehicles to support the operational needs of the state agency. The contract was awarded on November 19, 2025, with a cumulative value of $38.32, representing a single line item purchase under National Institute of Governmental Purchasing Code 97514.

The contract period reflects an anomalous completion date of September 15, 2025, which predates the award date of November 19, 2025, suggesting a documentation discrepancy in the contract record. The purchase order (26203479) issued by the State of Texas, Comptroller of Public Accounts—Statewide Procurement Division—specifies one unit of vehicle rental service at a unit price of $38.32. As a classified term contract, this award may represent an initial purchase order under a broader vehicle rental services agreement. The State of Texas has claimed exemption from federal excise taxes and sales tax under Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4) for this acquisition of tangible personal property for exclusive state use.
