Vehicle Rental Services

The Texas Department of Transportation - 601 awarded a term contract for vehicle rental services to The Hertz Corporation, headquartered in Estero, Florida. This contract, identified as Term 26206650, was executed on December 7, 2025, with a total contract value of $206.80. The purchase order (26206650-0.pdf) reflects a single line item procured under National Institute of Governmental Purchasing (NIGP) Code 97514, with performance to be delivered to the United States.

The contract represents a procurement processed through the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts - Statewide Procurement Division and is exempt from state and city sales taxes pursuant to Texas Tax Code, Section 151.309(4), as the property is secured for exclusive use by the State of Texas. The stated completion date of September 15, 2025, appears inconsistent with the award date of December 7, 2025, and may reflect a data entry error or retroactive documentation. The minimal contract value and single-unit quantity structure suggest this procurement may represent a specific, limited-scope vehicle rental requirement or a nominal award under an existing term contract framework.
