Key procurement sectors
Turkey procurement landscape
Turkey's EKAP manages one of the largest government procurement markets in Europe and the Middle East, with annual public spending exceeding $60 billion. The platform processes over 200,000 procurement notices annually, spanning Istanbul's ambitious mega-infrastructure projects — bridges, airports, urban rail, canal developments — through to rural healthcare facilities and municipal services. Defense procurement occupies a distinct position in Turkey's market: the country's defense industry localization strategy has built a substantial domestic military and aerospace manufacturing base, creating a specialized procurement ecosystem that prioritizes domestically developed systems and components for military procurement. Healthcare procurement is extensive given Turkey's large and growing public health system. Energy procurement spans conventional power generation, renewable expansion, and grid infrastructure. Automotive manufacturing is a significant Turkish export sector, influencing industrial procurement specifications.
Bidding on Turkey tenders.
Turkey's procurement law governs procedures for all EKAP-registered contracting authorities. Standard qualification requirements cover financial standing, technical capacity, and legal compliance. International participation varies by contract type, with defense procurement subject to specific domestic preference and offset requirements. Turkish-language tender documentation is standard.
