Detailed Process of Data Scraping Project Delivery
In data scraping projects, a standardized and transparent delivery process is key to ensuring project success. This article will comprehensively explain our 8-step delivery process, helping you understand the specific operations and considerations at each stage.
Why is a Standardized Delivery Process Needed?
Data scraping projects involve multiple aspects such as technical development, data quality, timelines, and payment arrangements. Without standardized processes, the following issues may arise:
- Requirements misunderstanding, leading to delivery results not meeting expectations
- Unclear payment milestones, affecting project progress
- Vague quality acceptance standards, leading to disputes
- Poor communication, affecting project efficiency
Therefore, we have established this delivery process that has been validated through years of practice, ensuring each project can proceed smoothly.
Detailed 8-Step Delivery Process
Step 1: Requirements Communication and Confirmation
Timeline: 1-3 days before project launch
Specific Operations:
- Client provides data scraping requirements document or detailed description (or we assist in providing)
- We conduct technical feasibility analysis
- Both parties confirm specific requirements such as data fields, format, quantity, etc.
- Determine project timeline and delivery method
Important Notes: The requirements confirmation stage is very important. We recommend clients provide as detailed requirement descriptions as possible, including data sources, field requirements, format preferences, etc.
Step 2: Initial Payment
Payment Ratio: 20% of total project amount
Payment Methods: WeChat Pay, Alipay, bank transfer, etc.
Payment Time: Within 24 hours after requirements confirmation
Purpose: Initial payment is mainly used for project launch and early development work, including environment setup, technical solution design, etc.
Step 3: Project Development Launch
Development Content:
- Detailed technical solution design
- Development environment setup
- Data scraping program development
- Data quality verification mechanism establishment
Communication Mechanism: During development, we will regularly report progress and communicate with clients promptly when encountering technical challenges.
Step 4: Data Verification and Confirmation
Verification Content:
- Provide partial scraped data samples
- Client confirms whether data format and content meet requirements
- Make timely adjustments and optimizations if issues arise
- Continue complete data scraping after confirmation
Verification Standards: Data accuracy, completeness, format standardization, field coverage, etc.
Step 5: Project Completion and Interim Payment
Payment Ratio: 60% of total project amount
Payment Conditions: Data scraping completed, quality meets agreed standards
Completion Standards:
- Data scraping quantity meets agreed requirements
- Data quality passes acceptance standards
- Data format meets delivery requirements
Step 6: Data Delivery and Technical Support
Delivery Content:
- Complete data files (Excel/CSV/JSON formats, etc.)
- Data dictionary and field description documents
- Technical documentation and usage instructions
Technical Support: Provide 7 working days of free technical support to assist clients in understanding and using the data.
Step 7: Final Payment
Payment Ratio: 20% of total project amount
Payment Time: 7 working days after data delivery
Payment Conditions: Client confirms data quality satisfaction, no major quality issues
Step 8: Project Completion
Completion Mark: All payments settled, client confirms satisfaction
Follow-up Services: Provide long-term technical support, continue cooperation if data update needs arise
