Vehicle Rental Services

The State of Texas, through the State Auditors Office, awarded a term contract to The Hertz Corporation for vehicle rental services. The Hertz Corporation, headquartered in Estero, Florida, was selected as the prime contractor for this procurement action. The contract was awarded on November 13, 2025, with a completion date of September 15, 2025. The total contract value is $144.14, representing a single line item purchase order (PO No. 26206265) for one unit at a unit price of $144.14.

The purchase order was processed through the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts—Statewide Procurement Division and assigned contract designation 26206265. The specific commodity ordered under National Institute of Governmental Purchasing Code 97514 is identified as item "R" but lacks detailed description in the available documentation. As a state entity, Texas claimed exemption from Federal Excise Taxes and state and city sales taxes under Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4), as the procurement was for exclusive use by the State of Texas. The relatively modest contract value and singular unit quantity suggest this represents either a limited procurement action or a sample order under the broader term contract framework.
