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 22OI0015 and 22OI0067 have near-identical descriptions about 714 m apart (funding year 2022; ₱67.45M, ₱29.35M). Worth checking whether they cover the same works. It is possible that these are two segments of the same creek, or that one project covers a specific barangay while the other covers a broader area.

How this was checked

publish · confidence 0.95

Model: gpt-4.1

Prompt: v4.1

Checked: October 22, 2026

The two project titles are near-identical, with the only difference being that one specifies 'Brgy. Talon 5' and the other does not specify any barangay. There are no phase, package, or section markers, and the guidance states to publish when one title has a barangay marker and the other does not. Both projects are in the same municipality, funded in the same year, by the same contractor, and are only 714 meters apart. This fits the 'unlabelled twin' scenario described in the rule-specific guidance.
