Response to your request

While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, we are unable to provide you with your requested documents.

Firstly, kindly note that the Road Transportation Information Technology Infrastructure Project (PH2) is not yet awarded (i.e. currently under the procurement/bidding stage), so there is no signed contract yet.

Secondly, we are prohibited under DOJ Opinion No. 26 (s. 2017) from publishing or otherwise distributing PPP contracts and/or portions thereof, as these are owned by the implementing agencies. We therefore refer you to the respective implementing agencies/LGUs undertaking these projects as they are in the best position to provide you with the information you are requesting:

1.	Koronadal City Information Technology Project – City Government of Koronadal
2.	Malabon Digital Infrastructure Project – City Government of Malabon
3.	Pampanga Geographic Information System Center - Provincial Government of Pampanga
4.	Civil Registry System Information Technology Project (PH2) - Philippine Statistics Authority
