Startup FactoryFix helping manufacturing companies to automate
FactoryFix is making it easier for companies of all sizes to automate.They are changing the way companies service, program, and maintain automation systems. It is a two-sided marketplace, hence their mission is to bring value to both industrial companies and the companies/service providers that specialize in industrial services.
Industrial companies need FactoryFix to stay productive and save on the costs incurred with searching for and vetting key vendors they need to stay productive. FactoryFix allows these companies to post a project or service need, and almost immediately receive up to 5 quotes from local Experts that specialize in the type of work they need done.
Service providers use FactoryFix to meet new customers. They receive leads from local industrial companies for projects that fit their capabilities. If they wish to send that customer a quote, the service provider pays FactoryFix an introduction fee. If not, they simply pass and wait for the next project.
Few reasons why many customers choose FactoryFix Services are:
Safe : Their skilled fixers are prescreened and insured. They will only provide vetted and certified contractors who can program and fix the automation equipment. To ensure quality, contractors are rated after every visit.
Hassle-free : With FactoryFix, there are no down payments! When the job is complete, simply pay securely online with an electronic check (ACH) or credit card.
Convenient : Search by skills, location, price, rating and availability to quickly filter through hundreds of automation experts to determine which one is right for your project.
Local : FactoryFix provides an on-demand labor force that’s nearby and ready to help program, install, service, and maintain the automation systems as efficiently as if they were in-house.

He developed and tested some of the business hypothesis of FactorFix before making the jump to start the company in early 2015.
FactoryFix is bringing the technology and innovation of the digital startup movement to an industry that has been lagging behind in the web 2.0 revolution.
