The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Institutional Division (TDCJ ID) awarded a purchase order to Sid Tool Co., Inc., doing business as MSC Industrial Supply Co., on September 16, 2026, under contract TXMAS-25-45003. The prime contractor, located in Davidson, North Carolina, is supplying one adjustable tri-ball hitch with chrome and black finish (available in 1-7/8", 2", and 2-5/16" configurations) for delivery to the TDCJ ID Maintenance Depot in Huntsville, Texas. The contract value is $192.67, with a scheduled delivery date of September 18, 2026.

This single-line-item purchase order represents a procurement of equipment hardware for maintenance operations at the TDCJ ID facility. The transaction qualifies for exemption from state and city sales taxes under Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4), and the State of Texas is exempt from applicable Federal Excise Taxes as noted in the contract terms. The compressed delivery timeline of two days from award to scheduled delivery indicates this was a time-sensitive operational requirement for the state's criminal justice institutional infrastructure.
