Express Saver

The Health & Human Services Commission (Agency 529) of the State of Texas awarded a contract to FedEx Corporate Services, Inc. for express shipping services. The prime contractor, located at 900 7th Street NW, Suite 550, Washington, D.C. 20001, was tasked with providing one unit of Express Saver shipping service under Contract 962-C1. The contract was awarded on August 3, 2026, with a total contract value of $20.50, representing a single purchase order transaction rather than an ongoing term agreement with extended performance obligations.

The purchase order (No. 26318822) specified a unit price of $20.50 for the Express Saver service, with delivery scheduled for August 3, 2026—the same date as order placement. The State of Texas claimed exemption from Federal Excise Taxes and State and City Sales Taxes under Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4). The National Institute of Governmental Purchasing commodity code assigned to this line item was 96224, reflecting the shipping service classification. Given the minimal contract value and single-unit scope, this transaction appears to represent an isolated shipping requirement rather than the establishment of a broader supply relationship.
