Direct peers

• Mairie de Bayeux: Another Norman commune whose economy is anchored in D-Day / WWII heritage tourism (Bayeeux Tapestry and landing beaches); directly comparable as a small-city municipal operator with a similar heritage-tourism value proposition.
• Mairie d'Arromanches-les-Bains: Small Norman coastal commune built around the D-Day Mulberry harbor heritage site; the closest functional peer — a small municipal authority monetizing a single iconic D-Day heritage asset.

Regional players

• Mairie de Saint-Lô: Préfecture of the Manche department; comparable municipal services portfolio (admin, culture, sport, CCAS) for a similarly sized Norman town.
• Mairie de Caen: Capital of Calvados in Normandy, operating a comparable portfolio of administrative, cultural, and heritage services — a useful benchmark for service-line breadth and digital-portal maturity within the same region.
• Mairie de Cherbourg-en-Cotentin: Subprefecture of Manche (same department as Carentan-les-Marais) and a commune nouvelle formed by merging several communes. Comparable governance structure, urban planning, and cultural-services delivery model.

Others

• Conseil Départemental de la Manche: Upper-tier public authority overlapping with municipal competences in social action (CCAS), heritage, and tourism; sets the broader fiscal and regulatory context for the commune.
• Communauté de Communes de la Baie du Cotentin (CCBDC): Intercommunal authority that delivers shared services (Aquadick, childcare, school catering, music schools, urban-planning portal) on behalf of Carentan-les-Marais and other member communes — closely intertwined operating partner.
• Office de Tourisme de la Baie du Cotentin: Intercommunal tourism office that co-promotes Carentan-les-Marais's heritage attractions; relevant peer for tourism-promotion effectiveness and visitor-flow benchmarks.
