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

Awards Very Close to the Budget Ceiling

Contract cost is at or above 99.5% of ABC from Sumbong.

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

Indicator: contract 22I00075 lists a cost of ₱95.71M, 0.16% above its Approved Budget for the Contract of ₱95.56M. Under RA 9184, awards normally may not exceed the ABC. This may be due to a rounding or data entry error, or a late adjustment to the contract amount.
