Vehicle Rental Services

The State of Texas, through East Texas A&M University (Agency 751), awarded a term contract to The Hertz Corporation for vehicle rental services. The contract, identified as 975-C1, was executed on December 24, 2025, with a total contract value of $92.72. The Hertz Corporation, located at 8501 Williams Road, Estero, Florida 33928, serves as the prime contractor under this procurement. The purchase order (Number 26205298) was processed through the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts - Statewide Procurement Division and includes a single line item under National Institute of Governmental Purchasing (NIGP) Code 97514.

The contract documents indicate a completion date of September 15, 2025, which predates the award date of December 24, 2025, suggesting a retroactive effective period or administrative processing delay. The procurement specifies Texas sales tax and federal excise tax exemptions as applicable to this state purchase of tangible personal property. The minimal contract value and single-unit quantity structure suggest this award may represent either a pilot procurement, a limited service engagement, or administrative documentation of a smaller operational requirement within the university's vehicle management operations.
