Vehicle Rental Services

The State of Texas, Department of Family and Protective Services (Agency 530), awarded a term contract for vehicle rental services to The Hertz Corporation (Tax ID 11319385685), with principal operations in Estero, Florida. The contract, designated as Term 26204479, was awarded on December 8, 2025, with a total contract value of $41.36. The purchase order (PO No. 26204479) references a single line item under National Institute of Governmental Purchasing (NIGP) Code 97514, specifying one unit of vehicle rental services at a unit price of $41.36.

The contract represents a minimal value transaction, likely indicative of administrative or clerical processing related to a broader vehicle rental arrangement or a nominal charge service. The State of Texas claimed exemption from federal excise taxes and state and city sales taxes under Texas Tax Code, Section 151.309(4), as the property and services are being secured for exclusive use of the State of Texas or a Texas political subdivision. The contract shows a completion date of September 15, 2025, which predates the award date of December 8, 2025, suggesting this may be a retroactive documentation or administrative closure of prior services rendered.
