Express Saver

On August 3, 2026, the State of Texas, through the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts – Statewide Procurement Division, awarded a purchase order to FedEx Corporate Services, Inc. for express shipping services. The purchasing agency is Texas A&M AgriLife Research (Agency 556). The contract, identified as 26317681, is structured as a term contract and calls for the delivery of one Express Saver shipping service unit under National Institute of Governmental Purchasing Code 96224. The total contract value is $7.73, with a unit price of $7.73 and a delivery date coinciding with the award date of August 3, 2026, with zero days after receipt of order.

FedEx Corporate Services, Inc., the prime contractor with headquarters located at 900 7th Street NW, Suite 550, Washington, District of Columbia 20001, is responsible for providing the Express Saver service. The State of Texas has claimed exemption from federal excise taxes and applicable sales taxes under Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4), as the purchase is designated for exclusive use by the State of Texas or a Texas political subdivision. The minimal contract value and immediate performance timeline indicate this represents a discrete procurement action rather than an ongoing service engagement.
