Rob Lyle
Director and Co-Founder
Rob is a problem solver, consultant and technical architect with a track record of delivering commercially aligned business solutions and transformations. Bringing a wide knowledge of IT products, services and industry best practices, he commands strong relationships with key industry vendors. Rob started his career 27 years ago in software systems integration and development, on national SCADA systems, quickly demonstrating the commercial nounce to design technology infrastructures sized correctly and efficiently for both functional and financial client requirements. Following early years working with system integrator Logica, and then Oracle’s porting laboratory in De Meern, Holland, the need for independent client advice called for a departure into freelance consulting. This has taken Rob through the banking, logistics, telecoms and security industry verticals to arrive today as a proud founder of Langton Blue where the passion from 27 years ago remains to deliver what you need, when you need it, and for the price you agree to pay for it. Nothing more and nothing less. If LB can’t do it, we say so.
Associates
To complement in-house skills, Langton Blue works with selected associates and partners. These are people personally known to the company, whose background and talents are aligned with delivering using the LB methodology. Associates are engaged with client approval and have proven skills and experience working with the team and in the area of knowledge required to deliver a project. LB has successfully delivered multiple projects with associate assistance.
