McDonald Data Services, Inc. (MDS) is big enough to handle almost any size project while maintaining service that can accurately be described as “personal”.  MDS is USA owned and operated and has been in business since 1972.  MDS’ onshore facility is located in the Dallas suburb of Plano.  This facility employs over 75 data entry operators, management and support staff and processes approximately 30 million documents annually.  MDS has also used its 30 plus years of experience to select a very limited number of qualified offshore facilities and projects are assigned based upon the specific capabilities of each partner.  Although MDS has chosen to work with a small number of offshore facilities, the capacity of these partners is huge with over " 3000 data entry operators ". 

In 1972 Judy McDonald was a stay at home mother with her first child. In an effort to supplement her family's income she began to perform contract data entry work for Dallas based companies. The company expanded through referrals with Judy first adding her aunts and other friends to handle the increased volume. In 1988, Judy was contacted by a representative from Mary Kay Cosmetics asking her to bid on a project entering customer information submitted by the Mary Kay consultants. While larger than anything her company had done to date, Judy was successful in demonstrating to the executives at Mary Kay that her company could realistically ramp up for the project while maintaining the high quality levels that had attracted them to MDS in the first place.

Since that day, MDS has continued to add to our capability in both ability to complete larger and larger projects as well as adding features which continue to insure we remain at the leading edge of data conversion services and execution. In addition to retaining Mary Kay Cosmetics, McDonald Data Services has also provided its services to other large customers such as Advanta, Merck, Microsoft, Nokia, Omnicom, Sears, Sony, Sprint and Verizon with its direct, accountable and responsive business processes.
