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":"592f5930-5794-4508-809c-7647323a1581","date":"2016-09-19","amount":6665322.45,"department":"Unknown"},{"id":"ca140aae-9baf-4940-a96c-5824506ef0c4","date":"2016-11-14","amount":6692294.89,"department":"Unknown"}],"window_days":90,"content_hash":"61213675ea61207cdbedcf7075fab59db82459bfa0220a2c602760e56247b787","combined_total":13357617.34,"contract_count":2},"published":true,"created_at":"2026-05-27T12:10:40.977550Z","related_entity_type":null,"related_entity_id":null,"reviewed_by":null,"reviewed_at":null,"reviewer_notes":null,"source_document_ids":null}
