Vehicle Rental Services

The State of Texas, through the Texas A&M Engineering Extension Service, awarded a term contract to The Hertz Corporation for vehicle rental services. The contractor, headquartered at 8501 Williams Road, Estero, Florida, was selected to provide rental vehicles under Contract 975-C1. This procurement, issued as Purchase Order 26205611, represents a nominal contract value of $199.60 and was awarded on November 5, 2025. The purchase order documents a single line item designated as "B" under National Institute of Governmental Purchasing Code 97514, with a quantity of one unit ordered at a unit price of $199.60.

The contract carries a completion date of September 15, 2025, which predates the award date noted in the contract record, suggesting this may reflect a retroactive documentation or administrative closing of a prior arrangement. As a State of Texas purchase, the transaction is exempt from federal excise taxes and state and local sales taxes under Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4). The minimal cumulative value and single-unit structure indicate this order represents either a supplemental requirement or final purchase under the broader term contract relationship between the state entity and The Hertz Corporation.
