Contract Awards
The funded-growth signal, straight from USAspending. Each row is a federal prime award — a company that just won a contract or assistance award — with the awardee, awarding agency, award amount (and a banded size bucket), NAICS, and UEI. Rows come newest-first by action date. Observational public records as filed: the feed reports which awards exist and when, and you set the decision rules.
The base: 95,890 federal prime awards across 24,323 recipient companies — 63,820 of them $1M or more. Future-dated modification actions are excluded, so event_date is a real, already-obligated award date, and every row carries as_published_date (point-in-time discipline, no restatements).
Provenance
Every federal award, one flat row
- USAspending.gov — federal award datarefreshed daily
Every federal prime award (contract and assistance) obligated to a recipient — recipient name and UEI, awarding agency and sub-agency, obligated amount, action date, NAICS/PSC, CFDA, and description. Newest-first by action date; a company winning federal money is a funded-growth signal.
https://www.usaspending.gov
Banded amounts. award_amount carries the reported figure; award_amount_band is a coarse size bucket ($1M–$5M, $25M–$100M, …) — a read on scale, never a spuriously precise claim.
Attestation. Every API response carries a signed _meta attestation and the USAspending source vintage, so any award traces back to the public record.
Observational. An award appears with a recipient, an agency, and an amount as reported — never a judgment of the recipient.
