City Of Abingdon is a municipality located in Knox County, Illinois, registered in the System for Award Management (SAM.gov) since 2009. As a U.S. local government entity, the city focuses on infrastructure development and community improvement projects. While it does not have federal contract prime awardees, the city has successfully secured federal grant sub-awards to support critical municipal infrastructure initiatives.

The City of Abingdon has received multiple Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Public Infrastructure Grant funds from the Illinois Department of Commerce & Economic Opportunity and the Illinois Department of Public Health. These grants have primarily supported water infrastructure improvements, including water main replacements, water storage tank rehabilitation, and water system upgrades. In January 2025, the city was awarded $1,132,120.74 to construct 3,178 linear feet of 6-inch PVC water main and 461 linear feet of 8-inch water mains within its eastern corporate limits. Previously, in May 2020, the city utilized CDBG funding to enhance its water infrastructure by constructing bypass piping, demolishing an existing ground storage tank, rehabilitating a 1,000,000-gallon ground storage tank, and cleaning and treating a 300,000-gallon elevated water storage tank. These grant-funded projects demonstrate the city's commitment to maintaining and improving essential municipal water infrastructure.
