Vehicle Rental Services

The State of Texas, through the Health & Human Services Commission (Agency 529), has awarded a term contract for vehicle rental services to The Hertz Corporation, headquartered in Estero, Florida. The contract, designated as 26205618, was executed on December 9, 2025, with a contract value of $82.72. The purchase order (PO No. 26205618) specifies one unit under NIGP Code 97514 at a unit price of $82.72, with the State of Texas designated as the procurement entity and ship-to location.

The contract is classified as a term agreement with a noted completion date of September 15, 2025, though this predates the award date, suggesting the contract may have retroactive effect or the completion date reflects a specific service period. The contract is exempt from federal excise taxes and state and local sales taxes under Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4), as the vehicle rental services are secured for the exclusive use of the State of Texas or a Texas political subdivision. The low contract value suggests this purchase order represents either a minimal transaction under a broader vehicle rental services agreement or a single rental event.
