Continental US Ground - OB

The State of Texas, through the Texas Division of Emergency Management, awarded contract 962-C1 to FedEx Corporate Services, Inc. for Continental United States ground shipping services. The contract, issued as Purchase Order No. 26319096 on August 3, 2026, encompasses a single line item for outbound ground transportation services classified under NIGP Code 96224. The prime contractor, FedEx Corporate Services, Inc., is located at 900 7th Street NW, Suite 550, Washington, District of Columbia 20001. The contract value totals $220.26, representing a single shipment with a unit price of $220.26 and a delivery date coinciding with the purchase order issuance date of August 3, 2026, with zero days allowed after receipt of order.

This procurement is classified as a Term contract under the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts' Statewide Procurement Division. The State of Texas claimed exemption from sales tax under Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4), as the shipping service is for exclusive use by the State of Texas or a Texas political subdivision. The minimal contract value and expedited delivery timeline indicate this represents a discrete shipping transaction rather than an ongoing service arrangement.
