When the combined value crosses a procurement-approval threshold but each individual award stays below it, the pattern is classically called 'contract splitting' and warrants further review against the procurement code and any sole-source justifications. The pattern can also reflect legitimate phased work or multiple unrelated services with the same vendor. Tier 2: vendor-named observation, no individual characterization.","fiscal_year":null,"review_status":"auto","review_tier":2,"evidence":{"vendor":"Churchill McGee","contracts":[{"id":"943294af-f68b-4379-a08b-416632a57bb9","date":"2015-06-29","amount":6369507.43,"department":"Unknown"},{"id":"1109e64a-7aff-405e-b300-81d82e788874","date":"2015-08-28","amount":6384553.54,"department":"Unknown"},{"id":"01cc6ae6-4d21-464e-b26f-0bfc19e728c9","date":"2015-08-28","amount":6377831.18,"department":"Unknown"}],"window_days":90,"content_hash":"0fd670bae3c0736cbf82d3f356ecde7c803d96791aecf0b68962c2aedbde30b4","combined_total":19131892.15,"contract_count":3},"published":true,"created_at":"2026-05-27T12:10:40.935707Z","related_entity_type":null,"related_entity_id":null,"reviewed_by":null,"reviewed_at":null,"reviewer_notes":null,"source_document_ids":null}
