Grainger items

On March 31, 2026, the State of Texas, Department of Criminal Justice, Institutional Division (Agency 696) awarded a purchase order to W.W. Grainger, Inc. dba Grainger for the procurement of Grainger Items under contract TXMAS-25-45002. The contract value totals $271.68 for one unit procured under National Institute of Governmental Purchasing Code 45000. The place of performance is the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Institutional Division Maintenance Depot located in Huntsville, Texas, with the contractor maintaining operations in Austin, Texas.

The purchase order represents an offline sale transaction for tangible personal property intended for exclusive use by the State of Texas. The state exercised its statutory exemption from Federal Excise Taxes and State and City Sales Taxes under Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4). No specific period of performance beyond the award date of March 31, 2026 is documented in the available materials. The limited contract value and single-unit procurement suggest this represents a routine maintenance or operational supply transaction for institutional facilities rather than a substantial service delivery engagement.
