Vehicle Rental Services

The Health & Human Services Commission (HHSC), a Texas state agency, awarded a term contract to The Hertz Corporation for vehicle rental services on December 23, 2025. The contract, identified as 975-C1, carries a total value of $288.34 and represents a single purchase order transaction. The Hertz Corporation, headquartered in Estero, Florida, will provide the requested services with shipping designated to the United States. The contract documents indicate a completion date of September 15, 2025, though this appears inconsistent with the award date of December 23, 2025.

This procurement was executed under the State of Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts' Statewide Procurement Division with NIGP Code 97514 classification. The transaction consists of one line item for vehicle rental services at a unit price of $288.34. Texas claims exemption from federal excise taxes and state and local sales taxes under Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4) for this purchase of tangible personal property for exclusive state use. The modest contract value and single-line-item structure suggest this represents either a limited-scope rental requirement or a test transaction under an existing master vehicle rental agreement.
