Contract cost is at or above 99.5% of ABC from Sumbong.

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

Indicator: contract 23KK0113 lists a cost of ₱74.25M, 1.02% above its Approved Budget for the Contract of ₱73.50M. Under RA 9184, awards normally may not exceed the ABC. This may be due to a data entry error or a post-bid adjustment that was not reflected in the ABC field.
