I would have your internal model how you like for the best application design and then write cron scripts that import into your main db from the other disparate format databases. Have a field in your internal model so you know the original source of each entry. Reimport when the third party DBs dumps change modified date. Have something in the file names (a prefix or suffix) so you know which script to run for each.
Thats my idea without knowing more about what you are doing..
