Who looks worst, by the rule.
Every table states the rule it ranks by and the date of its data. Rows link to the dossier or record behind them. No model, no editorializing: the rule, applied.

Today's verified contract flags
Rule: the deterministic red-flag detectors (near-ceiling, split awards, repeat direct awards, concentration, late publication) over the day's pulled window, ordered by flag severity. A flag is a question, not a conclusion.
Direct-award share, by buyer
Rule: share of a buyer's contracts awarded by direct award, over the day's pulled window (600 contracts), buyers with at least 10 contracts in the window. Movement compares ranks against the previous run. Direct awards are lawful by default; a high share is a question, not a verdict.
| # | Buyer | Contracts | Direct | % | Move |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 01 | Unidade Local de Saúde de Gaia/Espinho, EPE | 20 | 12 | 60% | = |
| 02 | Município de Oeiras | 12 | 4 | 33% | = |
| 03 | Unidade Local de Saúde de Santa Maria, EPE | 40 | 9 | 23% | = |
| 04 | Serviço de Saúde da Região Autónoma da Madeira, EPERAM (SESARAM, EPERAM) | 14 | 1 | 7% | = |
Buyer-supplier concentration
Rule: pairs with the most separate contracts between the same buyer and the same supplier in the window, by flag severity. Repetition is a pattern worth reading, not proof of wrongdoing.
| # | Supplier | Buyer | Contracts | Total |
