About the company
DBW Partners LLC, operating as The Capitol Forum, sells specialized online subscription access to proprietary policy analysis and research content focused on antitrust policy, merger control, and corporate investigations to federal agencies on a sole-source basis. The vendor operates as a self-certified small disadvantaged business limited liability company headquartered in Washington, DC, competing exclusively in full-and-open procurements without set-aside designations despite its SDB status.
The Capitol Forum's service offering is narrowly focused: web-based subscription access to proprietary intelligence on antitrust and competition policy. The vendor has secured recurring sole-source purchase orders and definitive contracts from three federal customers. Recent awards include a $77,074 definitive contract from the Federal Trade Commission running through January 2031, a $33,660 purchase order from the Department of Justice Antitrust Division with performance through February 2027, and an $82,884 purchase order from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau with completion through August 2027. Across all award types, no competitive procurement has been issued; every award cites DBW Partners as the sole known responsible source for The Capitol Forum's proprietary publication.
Customer concentration is explicit: the Federal Trade Commission accounts for four awards totaling $177 thousand in combined potential value, the Department of Justice Antitrust Division accounts for six awards totaling $140 thousand, and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau holds one award of $83 thousand. These three agencies represent 100% of the vendor's federal footprint. The vendor holds no parent vehicles, IDIQs, GWACs, or BPAs; each award is a standalone purchase order or definitive contract.
Activity has been sparse and episodic. Across the past five years, the vendor received two awards in 2022, one in 2023, one in 2024, one in 2025, and two in 2026 (most recent February 2026). Combined potential value across all eleven prime awards since 2015 is $399 thousand, with $291 thousand obligated to date. Two awards totaling $117 thousand in combined potential value reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating limited recompete exposure. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime; it holds no subcontract positions and engages no subs. DBW Partners has no documented subcontracting footprint and does not compete under enterprise teaming arrangements.
