For a summary by disaggregated product and services sales for each segment, refer to Note 14 Segment Financial Data of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. We recognize revenue arising from performance obligations outlined in contracts with our customers that are satisfied at a point in time and over time. The disaggregation of our revenue based off timing of recognition is as follows:
| Three Months Ended September 30, |  | Nine Months Ended September 30,
| 2019 |  | 2018 |  | 2019 |  | 2018
Products, transferred point in time | 62 | % |  | 67 | % |  | 61 | % |  | 68 | %

Contract Balances Progress on satisfying performance obligations under contracts with customers and the related billings and cash collections are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet in Accounts receivable - net and Other assets (the current and noncurrent portions, respectively, of unbilled receivables (contract assets) and billed receivables) and Accrued liabilities and Other liabilities (the current and noncurrent portions, respectively, of customer advances and deposits (contract liabilities)). Unbilled receivables (contract assets) arise when the timing of cash collected from customers differs from the timing of revenue recognition, such as when contract provisions require specific milestones to be met before a customer can be billed. Those assets are recognized when the revenue associated with the contract is recognized prior to billing and derecognized when billed in accordance with the terms of the contract. Contract liabilities are recorded when customers remit contractual cash payments in advance of us satisfying performance obligations under contractual arrangements, including those with performance obligations to be satisfied over a period of time. Contract liabilities are derecognized when revenue is recorded, either when a milestone is met triggering the contractual right to bill or when the performance obligation is satisfied. Contract balances are classified as assets or liabilities on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period. The following table summarizes our contract assets and liabilities balances:
| 2019 |  | 2018
Contract assets - Beginning period | $ | 1,548 |  |  | $ | 1,721 |
Contract assets - September 30 | 1,812 |  |  | 1,689 |
Change in contract assets - increase (decrease) | $ | 264 |  |  | $ | (32 | )
Contract liabilities - Beginning period | $ | (3,378 | ) |  | $ | (2,973 | )
Contract liabilities - September 30 | (3,188 | ) |  | (3,165 | )
Change in contract liabilities - decrease (increase) | $ | 190 |  |  | $ | (192 | )
Net change | $ | 454 |  |  | $ | (224 | )
The net change for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was primarily driven by the recognition of revenue as performance obligations were satisfied prior to billing and exceeded receipt of advance payments from customers. The net change for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was due primarily to customer payments received exceeding the related revenue recognition upon the completion of the underlying performance obligations to the customer. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recognized revenue of $215 million and $1,195 million that was previously included in the beginning balance of contract liabilities. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, we recognized revenue of $122 million and $1,023 million that was previously included in the beginning balance of contract liabilities. When contracts are modified to account for changes in contract specifications and requirements, we consider whether the modification either creates new or changes the existing enforceable rights and obligations. Contract modifications that are for goods or services that are not distinct from the existing contract, due to the significant integration with the original good or service provided, are accounted for as if they were part of that existing contract. The effect of a contract modification on the transaction price and our measure of progress for the performance obligation to which it relates, is recognized as an adjustment to revenue (either as an increase in or a reduction of revenue) on a cumulative catch-up basis. When the modifications include additional performance obligations that are distinct and at relative stand-alone selling price, they are accounted for as a new contract and performance obligation, which are recognized prospectively. Performance Obligations A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer, and is defined as the unit of account. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. When our contracts with customers require highly complex integration or manufacturing services that are not separately identifiable from other promises in the contracts and, therefore, not distinct, then the entire contract is accounted for as a single performance obligation. In situations when our contract includes distinct goods or services that are substantially the same and have the same pattern of transfer to the customer over time, they are recognized as a series of distinct goods or services. For any contracts with multiple performance obligations, we allocate the contract’s transaction price to each performance obligation based on the estimated relative standalone selling price of each distinct good or service in the contract. For product sales, each product sold to a customer typically represents a distinct performance obligation. In such cases, the observable standalone sales are used to determine the stand alone selling price. Performance obligations are satisfied as of a point in time or over time. Performance obligations are supported by contracts with customers, providing a framework for the nature of the distinct goods, services or bundle of goods and services. The timing of satisfying the performance obligation is typically indicated by the terms of the contract. The following table outlines our performance obligations disaggregated by segment:
| September 30, 2019
Aerospace | $ | 11,412 |
Honeywell Building Technologies | 5,558 |
Performance Materials and Technologies | 6,320 |
Safety and Productivity Solutions | 1,839 |
| $ | 25,129 |
Performance obligations recognized as of September 30, 2019 will be satisfied over the course of future periods. Our disclosure of the timing for satisfying the performance obligation is based on the requirements of contracts with customers. However, from time to time, these contracts may be subject to modifications, impacting the timing of satisfying the performance obligations. Performance obligations expected to be satisfied within one year and greater than one year are 57% and 43%, respectively. The timing of satisfaction of our performance obligations does not significantly vary from the typical timing of payment. Typical payment terms of our fixed-price over time contracts include progress payments based on specified events or milestones, or based on project progress. For some contracts we may be entitled to receive an advance payment. We have applied the practical expedient for certain revenue streams to exclude the value of remaining performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected term of one year or less or (ii) contracts for which we recognize revenue in proportion to the amount we have the right to invoice for services performed.
