Vehicle Rental Services

The State of Texas Department of Public Safety (Agency 405) awarded a term contract to The Hertz Corporation for vehicle rental services. The contract was executed on November 6, 2025, with a cumulative value of fifty dollars ($50.00). The Hertz Corporation, headquartered at 8501 Williams Road, Estero, Florida, serves as the prime contractor under contract designation 26204156. The initial purchase order (PO No. 26204156) reflects a single line item ("C") under National Institute of Governmental Purchasing Code 97514, with a quantity of one unit priced at $50.32.

The contract period of performance extends through September 15, 2025, with performance occurring under the auspices of the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts - Statewide Procurement Division. The State of Texas claims exemption from Federal Excise Taxes and state and local sales taxes under Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4) for this procurement of tangible personal property acquired for exclusive use by the state or its political subdivisions. The limited contract value and single-unit line item structure suggest this represents an initial or pilot procurement under the broader term contract vehicle for vehicle rental services.
