Contract 26297858

The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Institutional Division (TDCJ-ID) located in Huntsville, Texas, awarded a purchase order valued at $554.88 to W.W. Grainger, Inc. dba Grainger on July 13, 2026. The procurement, identified as TXMAS-25-45002, was issued under the TXMAS contract vehicle and encompasses two line items classified under National Institute of Governmental Purchasing (NIGP) Code 45000. The first line item consists of one Grainger item priced at $554.88, while the second line item consists of one Grainger item at no charge. Both items were scheduled for delivery on July 13, 2026, requiring zero advance order days. The contractor, Grainger, maintains operations in Austin, Texas, serving as the place of performance for this order.

The purchase order represents a single transaction rather than an ongoing contractual relationship, as evidenced by the immediate delivery requirement on the award date and the minimal cumulative value. The TDCJ-ID Maintenance Depot initiated the procurement under Texas's sales tax exemption provisions outlined in Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4), applicable to purchases for exclusive state agency use. The specific nature of the Grainger items procured under this transaction cannot be determined from the available documentation beyond their classification as general maintenance-related supplies or equipment.
