W.W. Grainger, Inc. dba Grainger, located at 7950 Research Blvd., Austin, Texas, was awarded a purchase order by the Texas Department of Agriculture through the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts—Statewide Procurement Division on June 18, 2026. The contract, identified as TXMAS-25-45002, carries a total value of $1,125.53 and represents a single purchase order transaction rather than a multi-year agreement. The specific products procured are designated as Grainger items under National Institute of Governmental Purchasing (NIGP) Code 45000, with two line items totaling one unit priced at $1,125.53 and one unit priced at zero dollars. Delivery was required on the same date as order issuance (June 18, 2026) with zero days after receipt of order.

The Texas Department of Agriculture executed this procurement as the end-using agency, with the goods secured for exclusive use by the State of Texas. As such, the State claimed exemption from federal excise taxes and state and city sales taxes under Texas Tax Code, Section 151.309(4). While the precise nature of the Grainger items is not explicitly detailed in the available documentation, the transaction represents routine procurement through a contracted vendor operating under the Texas Master Agreement Statewide (TXMAS) contract vehicle, consistent with standard state purchasing practices for commodity acquisitions.
