Indicator C5 — Pattern Consistent with Contract Splitting

AI-verified / Na-verify ng AI Data as of October 21, 2026

Pattern Consistent with Contract Splitting

Multiple similar contracts to the same contractor/DEO just under a threshold in a short window.

This is a statistical anomaly or indicator worth examining — not proof of wrongdoing, fraud, or corruption against any person.

Indicator: 6 contracts awarded to LLABAN CONST & SUPPLY FORMERLY: LLABAN CON by the same office started within 57 days, each between ₱42.5M and ₱50M (just under the ₱50M threshold), with 6 in the same municipality. It is common for flood control projects to be split across different rivers and barangays within a municipality for technical or planning reasons.

How this was checked

publish · confidence 0.98

Model: gpt-4.1

Prompt: v4.1

Checked: October 22, 2026

This is a C5 indicator, and the code already confirmed that ≥3 contracts (in this case, 6) were awarded to the same contractor and DEO, started within 120 days, each just under the ₱50M threshold, and all are in the same municipality. The titles refer to different rivers, barangays, and station markers, which is expected for C5 (the rule is about clusters of near-threshold contracts in one municipality, not about duplicate works). There is no evidence of a data artifact.
