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 23GH0047 and 24GH0081 have near-identical descriptions about 381 m apart (funding years 2023, 2024; ₱86.46M, ₱29.40M). Worth checking whether they cover the same works. It is possible that the second contract is a continuation or extension of the same flood control project funded in a new year.

How this was checked

publish · confidence 0.95

Model: gpt-4.1

Prompt: v4.1

Checked: October 22, 2026

The two contracts have identical titles with no distinguishing markers, are located in the same barangay and municipality, and are only 381 meters apart. The only difference is the funding year and contractor. This fits the rule's publish criteria for possible duplicate or overlapping works. Innocent explanations (such as a continuation or extension of the same project in a new year) are plausible but do not block publication.
