The contract was executed on May 6, 2026, with a contract value of $230.31. The Hertz Corporation, headquartered in Estero, Florida, was selected as the prime contractor to provide the specified rental services under Contract 975-C1.

The contract represents a term procurement arrangement structured as a blanket purchase order mechanism. The period of performance indicates an award date of May 6, 2026, with a stated completion date of September 15, 2025, which presents a data inconsistency in the contract documentation. The State of Texas, consistent with Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4), claims exemption from federal excise taxes and state and city sales taxes applicable to the transaction. Delivery of services is designated for the United States, and the contracting entity has asserted the exclusive use designation required for state procurement tax exemptions.
