Project Description
I’m compiling a comprehensive list of Australian-based IT companies and service providers. For each company I need two things captured accurately: up-to-date contact details (website, email, phone, physical address where available) and a clear summary of the services they offer.
Your task is to source this information via web scraping, clean it, and deliver it in a structured spreadsheet or CSV . The data must be gathered only from publicly available, reputable sources; if you already know reliable sites or industry listings, feel free to leverage them, and you can also suggest new sources if they improve coverage. I’ll provide any seed lists I have once we start, but please assume you’ll need to expand well beyond those.
Acceptance criteria
• Minimum record count and geographic coverage agreed up front.
• Each row includes company name, contact fields, and service list, with no blank columns unless the info genuinely doesn’t exist online.
• Duplicates removed and obvious errors validated manually or by script.
Please outline your preferred scraping stack (Python, BeautifulSoup, Scrapy, Selenium, etc.), estimated turnaround, and a sample of past similar work so I can gauge data quality.
