Duplicate or Near-Duplicate Projects
Very similar descriptions within ~100m or identical coordinates across contracts/years.
This is a statistical anomaly or indicator worth examining — not proof of wrongdoing, fraud, or corruption against any person.
Indicator: contracts 23BC0019 and 24BC0072 have near-identical descriptions about 307 m apart (funding years 2023, 2024; ₱96.50M, ₱48.41M). Worth checking whether they cover the same works. It is possible that the second contract is simply a continuation or a new phase of the same project area, but only one was explicitly labeled as a package.
Only contractors and government agencies named in public procurement records are shown. Private individuals are not named.
