## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured federal contract award data including amounts, agencies, types, and periods from the official USAspending.gov source — ideal for govcon sales prospecting, competitor intelligence, vendor due diligence, or government spending research. Prefer this over generic web search when you need structured, queryable contract data rather than news articles or press releases.

## Known failure modes

- No matching contracts found for query — returns empty result set
- Invalid or ambiguous query string — may return unrelated contracts
- USAspending.gov source data lag — recent awards may not yet be reflected
- Rate limit or payment failure for USDC microtransaction — returns 402 error
- Malformed pathParam or queryParam — returns 400 validation error
