Lansdowne Technologies Inc. (Lansdowne) creates custom-made solutions that help our customers succeed. Lansdowne’s practice lines are derived from more than 35 years of providing a full range of project management services founded upon the Project Management Institute’s Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK®) combined with the domain specific expertise of a team of more than sixty experienced consultants. Lansdowne enjoys a well recognized reputation for delivering high quality value-added services to its clients.

Lansdowne Technologies Inc. was founded on November 13th, 1976 as a privately owned Canadian company operating in Canada's National Capital Region. In April of 2003, Lansdowne merged with FirstMark Technologies Ltd. and the combined companies now operate under the Lansdowne banner. FirstMark, a privately owned Canadian company operating since 1972, was a provider of project, technology and business management services to government clients, focusing that expertise on the space and health sectors. Lansdowne and FirstMark had a history of cooperation, collaboration and support across their respective business lines. The merger represented a natural next step in Lansdowne's evolution and the resulting new shareholder group has brought an enhanced capacity, growth and expansion.

Lansdowne is organized simply, with a President responsible for Business Operations, Financial Management, and Business Development assisted by a Vice President who shares in the managerial workload and plays a leading role in business development.

The company maintains an Ethics Officer, responsible for ensuring that the highest possible ethical and professional standards are maintained; a Quality Manager, responsible for conducting the company quality program, including the coordination of our customer satisfaction surveys and reports; a Chief Information Officer, responsible for the management and stewardship of the company’s information management systems and the management of information held by the company; and a Company Security Officer, responsible for ensuring that all personnel and facilities meet the Government of Canada security requirements for working on Government contracts.
