High Concurrent Workload for One Contractor

Contractor linked to many simultaneous projects or very high total value vs peers.

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

Indicator: QM BUILDERS holds 88 flood-control contracts worth ₱6.96B, 6.87× the 95th-percentile contractor total (₱1.01B); up to 45 ran at the same time. This is a capacity question worth examining. The contractor may have exceptional capacity or specialization in flood-control projects, allowing them to handle a large volume of contracts.
