Why can a contract amount be negative?
The city records revisions and de-obligations as separate rows with negative award amounts. That means a vendor total is the net of original awards plus every later adjustment, not a running tally of payments. Awarded dollars are also not the same as dollars spent — a contract can be awarded and only partly drawn down.

Contracts are matched on the vendor name exactly as the city records it, so a company filed under more than one spelling may appear on more than one page. Award amounts can be negative on revisions and de-obligations; totals are the net of awards and adjustments, not payments made.
