Vehicle Rental Services

The State of Texas, through the Statewide Procurement Division of the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, issued a term contract award to The Hertz Corporation for vehicle rental services. The contracting organization is East Texas A&M University (Agency 751), with the contractor located at 8501 Williams Road, Estero, Florida. The contract was awarded on December 24, 2025, with a total contract value of $171.09. The contract encompasses a single line item classified under National Institute of Governmental Purchasing (NIGP) Code 97514, with a quantity of one unit at a unit price of $171.09.

The purchase order (PO No. 26205288) reflects the minimal scope of this specific transaction, though it is designated as a term contract, suggesting an ongoing relationship framework between East Texas A&M University and The Hertz Corporation for vehicle rental services. The State of Texas claimed exemption from federal excise taxes and state and city sales taxes under Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4), reflecting the tax-exempt status of the state agency. The contract completion date is listed as September 15, 2025, which predates the award date and suggests either a data entry discrepancy or retroactive documentation.
