Tiger recently implemented their own version of a Lean Process known as “6S”, in most circles of industry and manufacturing, that is a systematic approach to workplace organization. Tiger has taken it a step further by adding a crucial element of “SAFETY” to the program. This is now known at Tiger as the, “Geaux Tiger 6S Program.” The six steps/pillars of Geaux Tiger 6S are: 1. Sort 2. Set in Order 3. Shine 4. Standardize 5. Sustain 6. Safety The program was rolled out in the first of this year. The plan is designed to help reduce clutter in the workplace, place things in designated areas, promote good housekeeping, standardize our way of daily work routines, build a plan to sustain what we have set in place, and most importantly work and keep our areas and people SAFE! Geaux Tiger is about efficiency, competitiveness, and survival. It is a deceptively simple system that creates an organized and productive workplace. It’s not just about cleaning up and eliminating unneeded items. Geaux Tiger creates a workplace environment that can adapt and succeed. Chaos and unproductivity are your enemies; organization and efficiency are your allies. If implemented correctly and followed diligently, Geaux Tiger will lower cost, improved quality of operations, improve safety, increase productivity and create higher employee satisfaction. Tiger launches the “Geaux Tiger 6S Training Program,” All of the Tiger branches were introduced and trained on how to make the Geaux Tiger 6S Program come together for each location. A strict timeline was established, and all the branches are well ahead of schedule for the upcoming year! Vast improvements have been observed upon regular site / branch visits that are conducted every couple of months. The process is already showing great signs of cost reduction, cleanliness and greater morale at all locations! We will continue to improve on all 6 Elements as we grow and move forward in 2018 and beyond!

Tiger Rentals continues to execute a successful Fleet Safety Program. Geotab Driver Scorecards are shared weekly, with each Tiger manager taking ownership of their drivers’ average score. This open-book approach to driving safety has created friendly competition between divisions and branches, with the ultimate goal being the safest group of company drivers on the road. The Smith System Driver Training remains a cornerstone of driving excellence at Tiger Rentals as we approach 700 completed on-road training sessions with Tiger HSE driving instructors. Don’t let the scorecards mislead you…perfection is attainable. Many Tiger Rentals company drivers have achieved “Top Driver” status on a weekly or monthly basis by exceeding 1,000 mi/week or 4,000 mi/month and scoring a perfect 100.0 score. In summary, the Geotab Driver Scorecard measures the behavior of company drivers and the Smith System Driver Training provides the knowledge and skills required to modify that behavior. An effective ONE-TWO punch!
