What EQM CONSULT LTD. does

EQM Consult Ltd. is a privately held UK boutique consultancy, founded in 2021 and registered in England and Wales (Company No. 13390286), headquartered in Horley with operational presence in the London Gatwick area. The firm delivers auditing, implementation, and training services across environmental and quality management systems, focused on standards including ISO 9001, ISO 14001, AS 9100, EASA Part 21G, EASA Part 145, and EMAS. Its customer base is composed primarily of small and medium-sized enterprises that lack dedicated internal quality or environmental functions and require external support to achieve and maintain certification.

The company offers six integrated service lines: outsourced internal and supplier auditing, aerospace regulatory compliance (EASA Part 21G/145), quality systems implementation (ISO 9001, AS 9100), environmental systems implementation (ISO 14001, EMAS), customised training, and aerospace new product introduction consulting under AS 9145 (APQP/PPAP). A notable differentiated offering launched in 2023 is a fixed-scope ISO 14001 implementation programme delivered in 14 weeks. Services are delivered both remotely and on-site, with the founder (Beata Paliwoda, Ph.D.) and a small team operating as direct client contacts. GTM is sales-led and direct, with supplementary inbound demand generated through blog content on the company website and LinkedIn activity by the founder.

EQM Consult is owned and led by Beata Paliwoda, whose Ph.D., multi-standard auditing credentials, and cross-industry experience in automotive, aerospace, and railway sectors constitute the firm's primary commercial asset. Revenue is generated through professional services engagements with custom, quote-based pricing tied to scope and complexity, typically structured as multi-year contracts. The company has no disclosed institutional investors, no parent company, and no public revenue figures. Geographic scope is single-country (United Kingdom), with no disclosed expansion beyond domestic SME clients.
