MSP Collective ESP Directory

Scrapes the MSP Collective's public ESP directory — a curated list of External Service Providers (ESPs) that have achieved CMMC Level 2 / NIST SP 800-171 certification — into clean, structured JSON.

Why use this Actor?

Defense-industrial-base contractors, prime/sub vendors, and compliance teams routinely need to find and vet managed service providers that already hold CMMC/NIST 800-171 certification before signing them on. This Actor is useful for:

• Procurement and compliance teams building a shortlist of CMMC-certified ESPs by headquarters location or certification level.
• MSPs and ESPs themselves monitoring their own listing or tracking which competitors are certified and MSP Collective members.
• Compliance consultancies and researchers mapping the CMMC-certified vendor market.
• AI agents and research pipelines that need machine-readable CMMC/NIST compliance vendor data instead of manually browsing the directory page.

How to use this Actor

1. Click Try for free (or Run) on this Actor's page.
2. Leave the default Start URL as the MSP Collective ESP directory page.
3. Click Start and download your results as JSON, CSV, or Excel from the Output tab.

The entire directory is rendered on a single page — there is no pagination to configure, and one run captures the full list.

Input

Field	Type	Description
startUrls	array	ESP directory page URL. Defaults to the official page.
maxItems	integer	Maximum number of ESP records to return (default 100).
delaySeconds	number	Polite delay before each fetch (default 1.0s).
concurrency	integer	Reserved for consistency with other Actors in this line; this target is a single static page so it has no effect on run time.

FAQ

Is this legal? Yes — this Actor only reads MSP Collective's public ESP directory page. No login is required, and the site's robots.txt does not restrict this page (only HubSpot preview/preference paths are disallowed).

Does this include personal contact information? No — every field is company-level (name, certification, location, website). No individual names, emails, or phone numbers are collected.
