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 22HN0008 and 22HN0001 have near-identical descriptions about 613 m apart (funding year 2022; ₱77.20M, ₱96.50M). Worth checking whether they cover the same works. It is possible that the two contracts cover adjacent or sequential sections of the river, or that one includes additional structures (box culvert) not present in the other.

How this was checked

publish · confidence 0.95

Model: gpt-4.1

Prompt: v4.1

Checked: October 22, 2026

The two project titles are nearly identical, both refer to the same river and barangay, and are funded in the same year. The only difference is the mention of 'with Box Culvert' in one title, which does not constitute a clear phase, package, or location marker. The distance between the projects (613 m) is above the 100 m threshold, but the titles overlap in scope and location, making this a valid anomaly for public review.
