Continental US Ground - OB

The State of Texas, through the Comptroller of Public Accounts' Statewide Procurement Division, awarded a purchase order to FedEx Corporate Services, Inc. for Continental United States ground shipping services. The award, issued on August 4, 2026, was made on behalf of the Texas A&M University System - 710 under contract 962-C1. The prime contractor, FedEx Corporate Services, Inc., is located at 900 7th Street NW, Suite 550, Washington, D.C. The total contract value is $406.09, representing a single unit of shipping service at a unit price of $406.09. The delivery date specified is August 4, 2026, with zero days advance notice required.

The purchase order constitutes an offline sale transaction under the National Institute of Governmental Purchasing (NIGP) Code 96224, reflecting a term contract arrangement for shipping services. As the services are for the exclusive use of a Texas state agency, the State of Texas claims exemption from Federal Excise Taxes and all state and city sales taxes under Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4). The limited scope and value of this individual transaction suggest it represents a discrete shipping requirement fulfilled under an existing master service agreement between the State and the contractor.
