We are not told that it will be something he does or commits, but that he will set up or build (Dan9:27 and Dan12:11) and it will stand (Mark13:14 and Mat24:15). the abomination is an it that is set up or stands. (Dan9:27 Mark 13:14 and Mat24:15). So the abomination will be something that is set up and will stand until the end so it should be something we can see until the end.
