+# Pact Version Investigation Report
+
+## Executive Summary
+
+This report investigates whether Pact/Spring Cloud Contract versions need to be updated in the consumer-driven contract testing repository.
+
+## Current State Analysis
+
+### Current Versions
+- **Spring Boot**: 3.2.5 (Released: April 2024)
+- **Spring Cloud**: 2023.0.1 (Released: December 2023) 
+- **Spring Cloud Contract**: 4.1.2 (Resolved from Spring Cloud dependencies)
+
+### Repository Structure
+- Multi-module Maven project
+- `customer-service`: Provider service with Spring Cloud Contract verifier
+- `invoice-service`: Consumer service with Spring Cloud Contract stub runner
+- Contract definitions in Groovy DSL format
+
+### Test Status
+- Customer service tests: ✅ Pass
+- Invoice service tests: ❌ 1 test failing (network connectivity issue, not version-related)
+- Contract test: Currently disabled with `@Disabled // TODO`
+
+## Available Updates
+
+### Spring Cloud Release Trains
+- **Current**: 2023.0.1 (December 2023)
+- **Latest Stable**: 2025.0.0 (August 2024)
+- **Next Milestone**: 2025.1.0-M1
+
+### Spring Cloud Contract Versions
+- **Current**: 4.1.2
+- **Available**: 5.0.0-M1 (milestone)
+
+## Compatibility Analysis
+
+### Spring Boot 3.2.5 Compatibility
+- Compatible with Spring Cloud 2023.0.x (current setup ✅)
+- Compatible with Spring Cloud 2024.0.x (likely ✅)
+- Need to verify compatibility with Spring Cloud 2025.0.0
+
+### Upgrade Path Options
+
+#### Option 1: Conservative Update (Recommended)
+- Spring Cloud: 2023.0.1 → 2023.0.6 (latest in current train)
+- Benefits: Bug fixes and security patches
+- Risk: Low - patch release in same release train
+- Impact: Minimal code changes expected
+
+#### Option 2: Minor Version Update 
+- Spring Cloud: 2023.0.1 → 2024.0.2
+- Benefits: More features and improvements
+- Risk: Medium - new release train but same Spring Boot generation
+- Impact: Potential minor configuration changes
+
+#### Option 3: Major Update
+- Spring Cloud: 2023.0.1 → 2025.0.0
+- Spring Cloud Contract: 4.1.2 → 5.x
+- Benefits: Latest features and long-term support
+- Risk: High - major version changes possible breaking changes
+- Impact: Significant testing and potential code changes
+
+## Risk Assessment
+
+### Low Risk Indicators
+- Current versions are relatively recent (2023-2024)
+- Spring Boot 3.2.5 is still actively supported
+- Contract testing functionality is working (when enabled)
+
+### Medium Risk Indicators
+- Spring Cloud 2023.0.x release train has reached end-of-life (2023.0.6 was final)
+- Missing latest bug fixes and security patches
+- Contract test is currently disabled
+
+## Security Considerations
+
+- Unable to run automated vulnerability scan due to network restrictions
+- Current versions are recent enough that major security issues are unlikely
+- Regular updates are good practice for security maintenance
+
+## Recommendation
+
+### Immediate Action: Conservative Update
+1. **Update to Spring Cloud 2023.0.6** (final release in current train)
+   - Minimal risk
+   - Includes all bug fixes and security patches for this train
+   - No breaking changes expected
+
+### Next Steps: Plan for Future Update
+1. **Evaluate Spring Cloud 2024.0.x** after validating 2023.0.6
+   - Better long-term support
+   - More features and improvements
+   - Still compatible with Spring Boot 3.2.x
+
+### Long-term Consideration
+1. **Monitor Spring Boot 3.3.x** and corresponding Spring Cloud versions
+   - Plan coordinated upgrade of both Spring Boot and Spring Cloud
+   - Align with project's long-term roadmap
+
+## Implementation Plan
+
+### Phase 1: Conservative Update (Low Risk)
+- [ ] Update Spring Cloud version to 2023.0.6
+- [ ] Run full test suite to verify compatibility
+- [ ] Enable and fix the disabled contract test
+- [ ] Validate contract testing functionality
+
+### Phase 2: Future Planning (Medium Risk)
+- [ ] Research Spring Cloud 2024.0.x compatibility
+- [ ] Create branch for testing newer versions
+- [ ] Evaluate Spring Boot 3.3.x upgrade timeline
+
+## Test Strategy
+
+1. **Baseline Testing**: Ensure current tests pass
+2. **Incremental Updates**: Update one version at a time
+3. **Contract Validation**: Focus on contract testing functionality
+4. **Regression Testing**: Verify all existing functionality works
+
+## Conclusion
+
+**Recommended Action**: Update Spring Cloud to 2023.0.6 for security and stability improvements while maintaining low risk.
+
+The current versions are functional but could benefit from the latest patches. A conservative update approach minimizes risk while ensuring the project stays current with security fixes.
