ITEM 2.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

      The following discussion is qualified in its entirety by, and should be
read in conjunction with, the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements
including the notes thereto, included elsewhere in the Company's Annual Report
on Form 10-KSB/A for the year ended December 31, 1997.

OVERVIEW

      The Company has been in business since 1985 engaging in providing
engineering consulting services to the pipeline divisions of major integrated
oil and gas companies. For the period 1985 through 1989, most of its revenues
were derived from this segment. In October 1997, the engineering consulting
segment, which had previously operated as Industrial Data Systems, Inc. dba IDS
Engineering, was incorporated as a Texas corporation under the name of IDS
Engineering, Inc. (IED). The Company introduced its computer product segment in
1989 to provide industrial grade portable and rack mounted computers for
commercial use. This segment operated as a Texas corporation under the name of
Industrial Data Systems, Inc. (IPD). The IPD segment has generated sales as a
percent of total revenue of 25% and 21%, for the three months ended March 31,
1998 and 1997, respectively, while the IED segment has generated sales as a
percent of total revenue of 40% and 62% for the same periods. In 1997, the
Company acquired the Thermal segment, which fabricates air handling equipment
for commercial heating ventilation and cooling systems. The Thermal segment has
generated sales as a percent of total revenue of 35% and 17% for the three
months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

      The gross margin varies between each of its operating segments. Computer
product sales have produced a gross margin ranging from 29.1% and 24.6% for the
three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively, due to the decrease in
component part costs. The gross margin for pipeline engineering services, which
reflects direct labor costs, has ranged from 23.5% in 1998 to 30.5% in 1997.
This decrease is attributable to higher labor costs and increased competition,
resulting in lower margins. Thermal's gross margin was 19.5% and 32.9% for the
three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. This variation is
primarily attributable to pricing, and to direct labor as a component of cost.
The overall gross margin for Industrial Data Systems Corporation, which includes
product sales, pipeline consulting services, and Thermal's operations for the
three months ended March 31, 1998 was 23.5%. The overall gross margin for the
Company for the same period in 1997 was 29.7%. Gross margin for 1997 reflects
Thermal's operation only for the month of March 1997.

      The Company believes the addition of Constant Power Manufacturing
Incorporated (CPM) to its operations, will add to the overall performance of the
company by increasing revenues and creating positive profit margins.

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1997 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1998

      TOTAL REVENUE. Total revenue increased by $1,169,147 or 79.9% from
$1,462,441 for the three months ended March 31, 1997, compared to $2,631,588 in
1998. Revenue from the IPD, which comprised 24.7% of total revenue for the three
months ended March 31, 1998, increased by $340,432 or 109.7%. The increase in
IPD revenue was generally attributable to increased sales to new and existing
customers which resulted from the hiring of additional sales personnel, in
addition to the introduction of new product lines. Revenue from the IED which
comprised 39.8% of total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 1998
increased slightly by $139,208 or 15.3%. Revenue from Thermal, which comprised
35.5% of total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 1998, increased
$689,507 or 284.0%. The increase in Thermal revenue was attributable, in part,
to the fact that the 1997 revenue was derived only during the month of March,
following the acquisition.

      GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit increased by $182,299 or 41.9% from $434,717
for the three months ended March 31, 1997 to $617,016 for the same period in
1998. The gross margin as a percentage of total revenues decreased from 29.7%
for the period ended March 31, 1997 to 23.5% for the same period in 1998. The
decrease was attributable to a decrease in gross margin for the IED during the
1998 period. The gross margin for the IPD increased from 5.2% for the period
ended March 31, 1997 to 7.2% for the same period in 1998. This increase was
primarily attributable to a 

                                       8
<PAGE>
sales blend of products that have higher gross margins. The gross margin for the
IED decreased from 19.0% for the period ended March 31, 1997 to 9.4% for the
same period in 1998. This decrease was due to an increase in competition and
higher labor costs resulting in lower margins . The gross margin for Thermal
increased from 5.5% for the period ended March 31, 1997 to 6.9% for the same
period in 1998. This increase was attributable to cost controls implemented at
Thermal subsequent to the acquisition in 1997.

      SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased by $21,549 or 7.0% from $305,900 for the three
months ended March 31, 1997 compared to $327,449 for the same period in 1998. As
a percentage of total revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses
decreased from 20.9% for the three months ended March 31, 1997 to 12.4% for the
same period in 1998. The dollar decrease was primarily attributable to a
decrease in general and administrative expenses as a result of consolidating
clerical and administrative functions.

      OPERATING INCOME. Operating income increased by $153,558 or 144.8% from
$106,023 for the three months ended March 31, 1997, compared to $259,581 for the
same period in 1998. Operating income increased as a percentage of total revenue
from 7.2% for the three months ended March 31, 1997 to 9.9% for the same period
in 1998. The increase in operating income was a result of decreased selling,
general and administrative expenses.

      OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE). Other income decreased by $17,901 or 76.8% from
($23,295) for the three months ended March 31, 1997 to ($5,394) for the same
period in 1998. This decrease was due to increased realized gains on marketable
securities.

      NET INCOME. Net income after taxes increased by $146,589 or 269.5% from
$54,393 for the three months ended March 31, 1997 to $200,981 for the same
period in 1998. Net income after taxes increased as a percentage of total
revenue from 3.7% for the three months ended March 31, 1997 to 7.6% for the same
period in 1998.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

      Historically, the Company has satisfied its cash requirements principally
through borrowings under its line of credit and through operations. As of March
31, 1998, the Company's cash position, including marketable securities, was
sufficient to meet its working capital requirements. The Company had, as of
March 31, 1998, $325,000 in additional advances available under its line of
credit with a bank. The Company's line of credit which provides for maximum
borrowings of $350,000, which bears interest at prime plus 1%, is for a term of
one year and matures on June 11, 1998. The line of credit is secured by accounts
receivable, inventory and the personal guarantees of certain stockholders and
officers of the Company. The Company has established an additional line of
credit for Thermal, which will provide for maximum borrowings of $400,000, which
bears interest at prime plus 1%, is for a term of one year and matures on June
11, 1998. As of March 31, 1998 no advances were available under this line. The
additional line of credit is secured by accounts receivable and inventory of
Thermal, and a guarantee from the Company. An additional line of credit for CPM
has been applied for, in the amount of $400,000.

       The Company's working capital was $1,994,467 and $3,651,405 at December
31, 1997 and March 31, 1998, respectively.

                                       9

      CASH FLOW

      Operating activities used net cash totaling $128,898 for the three months
ended March 31, 1997 and generated $237,107 for the three months ended March 31,
1998. The Company did not generate significant cash flow from operating
activities for the three months ended March 31, 1997, due to the working capital
requirements resulting from the rapid growth of the Company. Trade accounts
receivable increased $193,106 since December 31, 1997. Inventory increased by
$540,381 for the same period.

      Investing activities used cash totaling, $1,262,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 1997 and used cash totaling $53,819 for the same period in 1998.
The Company's investing activities that used cash during the period ended March
31, 1997 was primarily related to the purchase of Thermal and its facilities.

      As of March 31, 1998, the Company had a portfolio of marketable securities
which had a fair market value of $419,217 and consisted of common stocks,
preferred stocks, bonds and mutual funds. The common stocks, preferred stocks
and bonds that the Company holds consists of securities which are traded on
three national exchanges - the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock
Exchange and the NASDAQ National Market System. These securities are frequently
traded by the Company. The mutual funds that the Company has available for sale
are open end stock funds which are managed by Aim, Pioneer, and Smith Barney &
Co. These mutual fund investments are generally held for longer than a one year
period. These securities are traded by the Company as part of its plan to
provides additional cash for working capital requirements.

      The marketable securities to be held to maturity are stated at amortized
cost. Marketable securities classified as available-for-sale are stated at
market value, with unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate component
of stockholder's equity, net of deferred income taxes. If a decline in market
value is determined to be other than temporary, any such loss is charged to
earnings. Marketable securities accounted for as trading securities are stated
at market value, with unrealized gains and losses charged to income. William A.
Coskey, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer, is responsible for
managing the Company's portfolio of marketable securities. The funds used in
this portfolio were from generally available from cash reserves.

      The Company has implemented a policy that restricts it from purchasing any
securities on margin, and also limits the investment of any one security or
mutual fund to represent no more than 10% of the Company's investment portfolio.
The Company believes that the risks associated with its investment portfolio are
slightly higher than the risk of loss in a Standard & Poor's 500 Index Fund.
This higher risk is due to the less diverse distribution of the Company's
portfolio as compared to the broadly based Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Index.

      Financing activities used cash totaling $8,560 for the three months ended
March 31, 1998, which was repayment on the term note for Thermal's facilities.
The Company has additional financing amounts of $325,000 available on its line
of credit at March 31, 1998. The line of credit has been used principally to
finance accounts receivable and inventory purchases.

                                       10
<PAGE>
      ASSET MANAGEMENT

      The Company's cash flow from operations has been affected primarily by the
timing of its collection of trade accounts receivable. The Company typically
sells its products and services on short-term credit terms and seeks to minimize
its credit risk by performing credit checks and conducting its own collection
efforts. The Company had net trade accounts receivable of $1,097,703 and
$2,461,970 at March 31, 1997 and 1998, respectively. The number of days' sales
outstanding in trade accounts receivable was 67 days and 85 days, respectively.
Bad debt expenses have been insignificant for each of these periods.
