Abacus License Subscription and API (DSI)

The Abacus License Subscription and API (DSI) contract is a forecasted subscription service issued by the Department of Buildings in the District of Columbia, aimed at providing access to licensing and permitting data through a robust API framework. This service is designed to support efficient integration of DOB’s regulatory and building code data into external systems, enabling automated workflows, compliance monitoring, and real-time data synchronization for developers, contractors, and third-party platforms. The subscription model ensures ongoing access to updated datasets, API endpoints, and technical support, with an estimated posting date of July 23, 2026, indicating a future procurement opportunity rather than an active award. The contract does not specify a solicitation number, set-aside type, NAICS code, or detailed organizational structure, suggesting it is still in the planning phase. Performance is expected to be centralized within the District of Columbia, with no defined physical place of performance beyond the agency’s operational scope. While no point of contact is listed, interested parties can access additional information through the provided UI link, which directs to the District’s contracting portal for further updates and eventual solicitation details as the forecast progresses toward formal release.
