Express Saver

The City of Fort Worth Purchasing Department (M2207) awarded a purchase order to FedEx Corporate Services, Inc. on August 4, 2026, under term-type Contract 962-C1. The prime contractor, FedEx Corporate Services, Inc., is headquartered at 900 7th Street NW, Suite 550 in Washington, D.C. The contract covers one unit of Express Saver shipping services with a cumulative value of $15.32. The transaction is classified under National Institute of Governmental Purchasing (NIGP) commodity code 96224 and was executed by a Texas political subdivision, qualifying the purchase for exemption from both Texas sales tax and Federal Excise Taxes.

The purchase order was issued with a delivery date coinciding with the order date of August 4, 2026, requiring zero days advance notice for performance. The City of Fort Worth claims exemption from Texas sales taxes under Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4), as the acquisition is for exclusive use by the political subdivision. Based on the minimal contract value and same-day delivery requirement, this transaction represents a single shipment of express shipping services rather than an ongoing term contract for recurring services.
