A contractor's federal award lineage by agency and NAICS, keyed on UEI.

What it answers

A contractor's federal award history: contracts by awarding agency and NAICS, with periods of performance and obligations in integer cents, cited to USAspending. Identify the contractor by exact UEI — the universal federal awardee key — or by recipient name prefix, and optionally narrow by agency or NAICS. Read an incumbent's lineage before you partner, price, or protest: which agencies they actually sell to, under which NAICS lines, and for how much, on the public record.

Ask it things like

What federal awards has Lockheed won, by agency and NAICS?
Show the award lineage for a UEI before we sign a teaming agreement.
Which agencies has a contractor sold to over the past five fiscal years?
Under which NAICS codes does an incumbent actually deliver?
What has a competitor been obligated at the VA under NAICS 541512?

What comes back

Every response is a receipt: the answer plus citations (the exact upstream query URL, independently re-runnable, with retrieved_at and the source's own as_of — two clocks, never collapsed), coverage caveats, matches declaring how any cross-source join was made, and a schema_version you can pin.

guardrails & coverage

Research over public-domain federal records — not legal, financial, or eligibility advice.
citature reports what the record says. It never renders a compliance verdict, a screening pass/fail, or a recommendation.
Entity-level records only (committees, candidates, recipients, agencies, contracts). No individual-person data.
Coverage reflects the records in citature's dataset, not the full upstream history. The ingest runs nightly and advances each dataset when its source publishes.
Every answer states its own coverage caveats in the receipt's `coverage` field.
