Indicator C3 — Duplicate or Near-Duplicate Projects

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

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 22FC0073 and 22FC0080 have near-identical descriptions about 583 m apart (funding year 2022; ₱24.50M, ₱23.75M). Worth checking whether they cover the same works. It is possible these are two segments of flood control structures in the same barangay but at different spots along the river.

How this was checked

publish · confidence 0.80

Model: gpt-4.1

Prompt: v4.1

Checked: October 22, 2026

Both projects are in the same barangay, funded in the same year, by the same contractor, and have highly similar titles. The only differences are 'at Barangay Mabilo II' vs 'along Matogdon River, Barangay Mabilo 2', which are not distinguishing markers per the rules (Roman numeral vs Arabic numeral, and 'along river' is not a phase/section marker). No clear evidence they are distinct works; possible overlap or duplicate funding.
