Supporting Manufacturing, Engineering & Supply Chain Businesses Across the West Midlands

The West Midlands is one of the UK's largest manufacturing and engineering regions, with businesses operating within demanding supply chains where quality, consistency and operational performance are critical. Increasingly, customers expect suppliers to demonstrate robust quality management arrangements, effective controls and a commitment to continual improvement.

We regularly support manufacturers, engineering firms, automotive suppliers, logistics providers and growing businesses looking to improve quality performance, reduce errors, strengthen customer satisfaction and improve operational efficiency. Whether your objective is reducing non-conformities, improving supplier performance, strengthening internal processes or preparing for ISO 9001 certification, we help organisations implement practical solutions that deliver measurable results.

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

Hi, I'm Rob.

I founded AlineX after spending years working within industry and later as an external Certification Auditor. Throughout my career I've seen first-hand the difference that well-implemented management systems can make to organisations, but I've also seen how unnecessarily complex they can become when they're designed purely to achieve certification.

That's why AlineX focuses on practical solutions. I help organisations implement ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 management systems that not only satisfy certification requirements but also support business objectives, reduce risk and improve performance.

With experience across manufacturing, quality, environmental management and Health & Safety, I understand the realities businesses face and the pressures managers operate under. My consultancy approach is built around making compliance straightforward, achievable and beneficial to the organisation.

You can learn more about my background, qualifications and experience on the About AlineX page.
