Contract 26278995

The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Institutional Division awarded a purchase order (PO No. 26278995) to W.W. Grainger, Inc. dba Grainger on June 20, 2026, under the TXMAS-25-45002 contract. The contracting organization is located in Huntsville, Texas, which serves as the place of performance. The purchase order, classified as an Offline Sale, was issued by the TDCJ Institutional Division Maintenance Depot and reflects a total contract value of $139.46. The contractor, Grainger, is based in Austin, Texas. While specific commodity descriptions are not detailed in the available documentation, the purchase order contains two line items with a scheduled delivery date of June 22, 2026, with the first line item valued at $139.46 and the second line item valued at $0.00.

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 purchases made for exclusive use by the state. No annual contract value or extended performance period was specified in the contract documentation, indicating this represents a discrete purchase order transaction rather than an ongoing service or supply agreement. The minimal contract value and single-transaction nature of this award suggests it fulfills an immediate operational need for the Institutional Division's maintenance operations.
