Contract 26262817

The University of Houston at Clear Lake has awarded a term contract to The Hertz Corporation for vehicle rental services. The prime contractor, located at 8501 Williams Road, Estero, Florida, was selected through the State of Texas Statewide Procurement Division and the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts. This contract, designated as Term Contract 975-C1, was executed on May 6, 2026, with a noted completion date of September 15, 2025—which appears to reflect a data inconsistency in the award documentation.

The contract encompasses the procurement of vehicle rental services classified under National Institute of Governmental Purchasing (NIGP) Code 97514. The initial purchase order (No. 26262817) specifies one unit of commodity item B at a unit price of $108.87, resulting in an order value of approximately $109. The University of Houston at Clear Lake is the contracting organization and ultimate place of performance. The State of Texas asserts an exemption from Federal Excise Taxes and state and city sales taxes under Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4), as the services are for exclusive use by a Texas state agency.
