| Trouble shooting and problem solving manufacturing problems My name is Mitchell Offord and I have owned and run Straightforward Business Improvements Ltd since 2011. I specialise in trouble shooting and problem solving manufacturing problems. |
 Mitchell Offord Those problems can be good ones to have, perhaps due to expansion due to business success, or new big orders, or perhaps you can’t keep up with demand! If the root cause stems from production side of your business, I deal with that area and if it stems from anywhere in the business I can solve those problems too. I work at all levels in all areas specialising in process control, process creation, and key performance indicators linked to objectives, ultimately problem solving what is not performing. |
