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: MARCUS CONST & SUPPLY received 43.8% (₱375.53M of ₱857.92M) of recorded flood-control contract value in Cotabato 3rd District Engineering Office across 17 contracts and 7 contractors, above the 40% concentration threshold (HHI 0.288). This may reflect that the contractor is particularly competitive or experienced in this area.
Only contractors and government agencies named in public procurement records are shown. Private individuals are not named.

Possible Innocent Explanations
