About AlineX — Practical Safety, Environmental & Quality Consulting

Helping businesses protect people, reduce risk, and achieve sustainable growth.

Rob Westwood, ISO consultant and founder of AlineX, providing expert support for ISO 9001, 14001, and 45001 certification

Hi, I’m Rob, founder of AlineX. I specialise in helping businesses strengthen their Health & Safety, Environmental, and Quality practices. With over 10 years’ experience across manufacturing, management systems, and environmental leadership, I have been in your shoes! I am also an experienced third party certification auditor, with experience on both sides of the table. I focus on making workplaces safer, more sustainable, and more efficient.

ISO certification support (9001, 14001, 45001) is part of what I do — but my real goal is to help you build practical systems that reduce risk, protect people, and deliver long-term value.

If you want compliance made simple and solutions that work for your business, book a free consultation and let’s get started.
