About Factory Physicians

Factory Physicians is a manufacturing process improvement consulting company serving small and midsize manufacturers throughout Northeast Ohio. Factory Physicians founder, Mitch Robinson, serves manufacturers with 15-150 employees who've never hired outside process improvement help before. If you're a plant manager or owner running a profitable factory but know there's waste you can't quite pin down - the setup times that seem too long, the quality issues that keep recurring, the bottleneck that moves around - we find it. We diagnose hidden losses in labor, throughput, quality, material flow and production processes, and we work alongside your team to fix them. No silly certifications. No 5-year frameworks. Just systematic diagnostic work that finds the $10,000+ you're losing weekly and fixes it in 12 weeks. We work with job shops, contract manufacturers, and component suppliers across Northeast Ohio who need practical solutions, not convoluted jargon. We've helped consumer goods businesses increase throughput. Capital equipment manufacturer got an entire turnaround from failure to regional powerhouse. Rooted out the causes of scrap and rework for a defense assembly plant. Medical PCBA company: before quality project, 120 defects per thousand. After project, 4 defects per thousand. That's a BIG swing!
