Contractor Concentration (Flood Control)

A contractor holds a very large share of flood-control contract value in a district or province.

This is a statistical anomaly or indicator worth examining — not proof of wrongdoing, fraud, or corruption against any person.

Indicator: YURICH BUILDERS AND CONST SUPPLY INC received 53.4% (₱872.92M of ₱1.63B) of recorded flood-control contract value in Palawan 3rd District Engineering Office across 24 contracts and 12 contractors, at or above the 25% share threshold (HHI 0.334). This may be due to the contractor's strong track record or specialization in flood-control projects in the area.
