Contract 26305565

W.W. Grainger, Inc. dba Grainger was awarded a purchase order by the Port of Houston Authority (K0011) in Texas on July 15, 2026, under the TXMAS-25-45002 state contract framework. The award, processed through the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts - Statewide Procurement Division, carries a cumulative value of $1,171.50. The contract encompasses two line items classified under National Institute of Governmental Purchasing (NIGP) Code 45000, designated generically as Grainger items, with the first line item priced at $1,171.50 and the second at $0.00. Grainger, an industrial supplier with operations in Austin, Texas, served as the prime contractor for this procurement.

The purchase order specifies delivery on the same date as issuance (July 15, 2026) with no advance notice requirement. The specific product descriptions are not detailed in the available documentation beyond the generic "Grainger Item" designation, indicating that items were sourced from the contractor's catalog under the existing state contract agreement. The Port of Houston Authority, as the procuring entity, claimed a sales tax exemption under Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4). Given the limited scope of this single purchase order and the absence of a defined contract period, this award represents a discrete transaction rather than an ongoing service agreement.
