A Corruption Red Flag System can help detect fraud in tenders, such as overpriced services and substandard medical supplies, by identifying high-risk deals where bidders are connected. Other countries have successfully used similar systems to prosecute corruption cases, but Sri Lanka lacks one due to limited information on the e-Government procurement platform. Currently, only 9 out of 73 possible corruption red flags can be detected. If the government fully complied with the RTI Act, this number could increase to 23, and with further disclosures, up to 28. Greater transparency could help identify risky tenders, prevent corruption, and save public funds.
