DGS is a District of Columbia government agency comprised of more than 700 skilled employees working dynamically through six divisions to create new, and manage existing, District-owned and leased properties.

Our people hold expertise in the areas of architecture, design, and construction, building management and maintenance, real estate management, and security at more than 840 real properties across the city. We do this through the following divisions:

Whether it’s managing capital improvements and construction, covering utility and energy services such as electricity, steam, and water, providing specialized maintenance at schools, or providing security at key District facilities, DGS provides a multitude of targeted services across the city for its partner-agencies and members of the public.
