Grainger items

W.W. Grainger, Inc. dba Grainger, located in Austin, Texas, was awarded a purchase order by the Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) agency on March 31, 2026, under Texas contract number TXMAS-25-45002. The contract is classified as a TXMAS (Texas Multiple Award Schedule) procurement through the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts Statewide Procurement Division. The total contract value is $474.00, representing a single line item purchase of general Grainger items with a NIGP (National Institute of Governmental Purchasing) code of 45000. Goods are to be shipped to DART facilities in Dallas, Texas, and the purchase is designated exclusively for the use of the State of Texas or a Texas political subdivision.

The purchase order reflects a one-time transactional procurement rather than an ongoing supply arrangement. The specific Grainger items procured are not itemized in detail within the available documentation; however, the low contract value and single-unit purchase structure suggest a routine, emergency, or spot-buy acquisition of maintenance, repair, or operational supplies. The State of Texas has claimed exemption from all applicable Federal Excise Taxes and state and city sales taxes under Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4) in connection with this procurement.
