That would work if you add another level for the "Govt" condition.

It is pretty trivial to rewrite as a self-join. I adapted thee names
of the original problem:
SELECT
project_ID
FROM
Table T1 INNER JOIN
Table T2 USING (project_id) INNER JOIN
Table T3 USING (project_id)
WHERE
T1.Name LIKE '%Open%'
AND
T2.Name LIKE '%Engineering%'
AND
T3.Name LIKE '%Govt%'
