Konya Teknokent
Founded on July 23, 2004 to manage the Selçuk University Technology Development Zone.
Konya, Türkiye
Software and AI for Konya’s machinery makers, foundries and food producers.
ALGOFACT is a Turkish software and AI engineering company that builds dealer and service apps, ERP integrations, camera-based inspection for castings and spare parts forecasting for manufacturers in Konya, and for international distributors and buyers who work with them. Projects begin with a 30-minute discovery call. Engineering is delivered from our offices in Adana and Ankara TEKMER under ISO/IEC 27001:2022; Konya is a service area and on-site steps are planned per project.
An industrial base built on farmland
Konya is Türkiye’s largest province by land area, and its industry grew out of that. Large farmlands created demand for soil cultivation tools and machinery, and the city became a center for agriculture-based manufacturing. The investment office of the Mevlana Development Agency describes Konya as the leader in agricultural tools and machinery and second in the sector’s national exports, with tractors, milling machines, trailers, plows, seed drills, balers and harvesters among its main products.
The same office lists foundry and base metals, automotive supply, machinery, defense, energy, food, logistics, plastics and packaging, footwear and tourism as the province’s other key sectors. Provincial industry data from April 2023 counts 12 organized industrial zones over 5,947 hectares. The largest, Konya OIZ (KOS), covers 3,084 hectares with 738 active enterprises.
For international partners this matters in two ways. Machinery made in Konya is sold through dealers and serviced for years, often abroad, so dealer, warranty and parts data has to travel well. And quality in castings and machined parts is decided on the production line, which is where inspection and traceability pay off.
Common projects for Konya manufacturers

Practicalities of working with us
- 01
Language
Discovery, documentation and project communication in English or Turkish, so Konya plant teams and overseas distributors can work from the same material. - 02
Delivery model
Engineering runs from Adana and Ankara TEKMER with online meetings. Steps that require presence at a plant or dealer site are planned case by case after discovery. - 03
Risk control
High-uncertainty items such as casting inspection start with a feasibility step on real line images; the full build is decided on that result. - 04
Funding for Turkish entities
MEVKA calls, KOSGEB support and TÜBİTAK 1501 and 1507 may apply to the Turkish side of a project. Eligibility is decided by each institution. - 05
Handover
Go-live with access control and monitoring, runbooks for your team and an optional embedded team after the first release.
Questions about Konya projects
Approach01Is ALGOFACT based in Konya?
No. Our engineering offices are in Adana (Çukurova) and Ankara TEKMER (Çankaya), and our US address is in Dover, Delaware. Konya is a service area, and on-site needs are agreed in the discovery call.
02We distribute Konya-made machinery abroad. Can the dealer app support our markets?
Yes. The app can be built for several languages, currencies and dealer hierarchies, and data flows back to the manufacturer’s ERP under rules both parties agree on at the start.
03Does computer vision work on rough cast surfaces?
Where the defect is visible in the image, yes. We first collect real images from the line and measure whether defects can be separated from normal surface variation, then decide on the full build.
04Can you work with a company inside Konya Teknokent or InnoPark?
Yes, as a software development partner. How externally sourced services are treated in an R&D project inside a technology development zone depends on the zone management and Turkish regulations, so we recommend confirming it with your zone management company first.
05Our plant supplies the defense industry. How is data protected?
Delivery runs under our ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certified information security management system. If data must stay on site, systems and models run on your own servers, and any additional customer security requirements become part of the scope.
