The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Institutional Division (TDCJ ID) issued Purchase Order 26232598 to W.W. Grainger, Inc. dba Grainger on March 31, 2026, for the procurement of miscellaneous Grainger items under contract TXMAS-25-45002. The contract value is $85.36, representing a single line item order for one unit of supplies procured under National Institute of Governmental Purchasing (NIGP) Code 45000. The ordering entity is the TDCJ Institutional Division Maintenance Depot located in Huntsville, Texas, while the contractor is based in Austin, Texas. The purchase order was processed through the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, Statewide Procurement Division.

The contract covers the supply of industrial or maintenance-related items from Grainger's product catalog, typical of supplies commonly purchased by correctional facility operations. The State of Texas claimed exemption from Federal Excise Taxes and state and local sales taxes under Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4) for this procurement of tangible personal property for exclusive state use. No extended performance period is indicated; the purchase order was issued and completed on March 31, 2026. The minimal contract value and single-unit procurement structure indicate this represents a routine, spot purchase rather than a comprehensive supply agreement.
