The People Behind the Platform.

For 37 years, OCIE has been built and run by people who put relationships first. Our leadership reflects the values that have kept clients with us for decades: deep expertise, steady reliability, and a genuine commitment to every customer’s success.

Leadership

Mary Donnell

CEO & Owner

Mary leads Donnell Systems as CEO and owner, carrying forward the company’s founding vision while guiding its next chapter. Her career began on the floor of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange in 1983, a world where women were almost entirely absent. Rather than be discouraged, she drew on that experience to lead with focus, resilience, and clarity of purpose. Under her leadership, Donnell Systems is proudly WBENC-certified and women-owned, a milestone that reflects both the company’s growth and its commitment to diversity, leadership, and excellence. Mary’s mission is unchanged from day one: to unlock the potential of every customer’s information.

Lynn Donnell

Founder

Lynn founded Donnell Systems in 1989 and created OCIE, drawing on decades of experience as a programmer, systems manager, and technology leader. Lynn’s guiding principle, that the professional obligation is to give more than you receive, became the foundation of OCIE’s culture and service philosophy. Lynn designed OCIE around secure archiving, powerful retrieval, robust audit capability, and analytical insight, and remains central to the compan y’s vision and origin.
