Contract 26262876

Education Service Center Region 12 (E1610), located in Waco, Texas, awarded a term contract to The Hertz Corporation for vehicle rental services. The Hertz Corporation, headquartered in Estero, Florida, was selected as the prime contractor under Term Contract 975-C1. The contract was executed on May 6, 2026, with a cumulative value of $41.36 for a single line item procured under National Institute of Governmental Purchasing (NIGP) Code 97514. Shipment and billing are designated to Education Service Center Region 12's Waco, Texas location.

The contract represents a minimal transaction, likely a test order or administrative adjustment to an existing vehicle rental agreement. The State of Texas claims exemption from Federal Excise Taxes and state and city sales taxes under Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4) based on the procurement being for exclusive state use. While the completion date listed as September 15, 2025, predates the award date of May 6, 2026, this discrepancy appears to be a data entry error. The term contract structure indicates this represents a standing agreement enabling Education Service Center Region 12 to procure vehicle rental services from The Hertz Corporation on an as-needed basis.
