Broad incumbents

• Konya Büyükşehir Belediyesi: Large Anatolian metropolitan municipality with broad service portfolio including KOSKİ (water) and a comprehensive social assistance program structure analogous to Tekirdağ's Sosyal Yardım Portalı.
• İstanbul Büyükşehir Belediyesi: Turkey's largest metropolitan municipality, providing the full municipal service stack (water via İSKİ, transit via İETT, social services, disaster management) to 16M+ residents. Directly comparable in functional scope but operating at far greater scale in the same national legal framework.
• İzmir Büyükşehir Belediyesi: Third-largest Turkish metropolitan municipality with full municipal service portfolio including İZSU (water), ESHOT (transit), and a documented smart-city digital service platform. Closely comparable in operational structure and digital service breadth.

Direct peers

• Bursa Büyükşehir Belediyesi: Mid-sized Marmara-region metropolitan municipality with similar industrial-economic base to Tekirdağ. Operates comparable water (BUSKİ), transit, and subsidiary structure — making it one of the closest size and peer-group comparables.
