Contract 26263159

The Texas Department of Agriculture (Agency 551) awarded a term contract to The Hertz Corporation for vehicle rental services. The contract, identified as 26263159, was awarded on May 6, 2026, with a cumulative value of $38.32. The Hertz Corporation, located at 8501 Williams Road, Estero, Florida, will serve as the prime contractor for this procurement. The purchase order (PO No. 26263159) was issued by the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts - Statewide Procurement Division and covers one unit of commodity code "C" at a unit price of $38.32 under National Institute of Governmental Purchasing (NIGP) Code 97514.

The contract period extends from the award date of May 6, 2026, through the completion date of September 15, 2025, with delivery to the United States. The State of Texas is exempt from state and city sales taxes under Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4) and from all Federal Excise Taxes except as otherwise noted in the contract documentation. Given the minimal contract value and single-unit purchase structure, this award appears to represent a specific vehicle rental transaction or service requirement fulfilled through an existing term contract vehicle rather than a comprehensive vehicle rental program.
