This is a statistical anomaly or indicator worth examining — not proof of wrongdoing, fraud, or corruption against any person.
Indicator: contract 22E00146 lists a cost of ₱74.20M, 2.53% above its Approved Budget for the Contract of ₱72.37M. Under RA 9184, awards normally may not exceed the ABC. This may be due to a data entry error or a post-bid contract adjustment not reflected in the ABC field.
