Contract 26261501

The State of Texas, through the Department of Family and Protective Services (Agency 530), awarded a term contract to The Hertz Corporation for vehicle rental services. The prime contractor, headquartered at 8501 Williams Road, Estero, Florida, was selected to provide rental vehicles under Contract 975-C1. The contract was awarded on May 6, 2026, with a completion date of September 15, 2025, indicating an administrative timeline discrepancy in the documentation. The cumulative contract value is thirty-eight dollars ($38.32), representing a single purchase order (No. 26261501) for one unit of service under National Institute of Governmental Purchasing (NIGP) Code 97514.

This term contract vehicle rental arrangement is classified as an "Offline Sale Purchase Order" processed through the State of Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts' Statewide Procurement Division. The State of Texas has claimed exemption from all Federal Excise Taxes and State and City Sales Taxes under Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4), as the rental vehicle is being secured for the exclusive use of the State. The minimal contract value and single-unit procurement structure suggest this order may represent either a supplemental transaction under a larger vehicle rental agreement or a test transaction within the state's procurement framework.
