Contract 26262731

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 contractor, headquartered at 8501 Williams Road, Estero, Florida 33928, was selected to provide one unit of commodity item C under Contract 975-C1. The purchase order (PO No. 26262731) was issued on May 6, 2026, with a unit price of $38.32, resulting in a total contract value of $38.32. The State of Texas asserted a sales tax exemption under Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4), claiming the property was being secured for the exclusive use of the state or a political subdivision thereof.

The contract demonstrates a discrepancy in temporal documentation, with an award date of May 6, 2026, and a stated completion date of September 15, 2025, which predates the award by approximately eight months. This irregularity may reflect data entry error or a retroactive contractual arrangement. The contract type is designated as "Term," indicating an ongoing supply arrangement, though the specific period of performance and annual value are not explicitly defined in the available documentation. The exceptionally modest cumulative value of $38.32 suggests this represents either an initial order under a larger master agreement or a de minimis transaction volume.
