WASHINGTON, July 30, 2015 /3BL Media/ - Soud Habbas, Senior Director, Operations and Compliance at PYXERA Global, was awarded honorable mention at the Inside NGO Operational Excellence Awards Ceremony for his excellent work in scaling process and procedures commensurate with PYXERA Global on-going growth.  Soud will be recognized in the Operational Excellence Awards Ceremony program as part of Inside NGO’s Annual Conference July 30.

PYXERA Global’s growth over the last few years has more than doubled its staff and increased its global reach. Soud led a complete redesign of processes to create more efficient, safe, and consistent operations for PYXERA Global in the areas of procurement and compliance. He brought significant benefit to PYXERA Global, as well as to partner organizations, through the creation of an organizational risk analysis, standard policies and processes, comprehensive staff trainings, robust client agreements, and operational audits. The new processes developed—and implemented—have helped PYXERA Global enhance its strategic growth.

“Soud is incredibly experienced and offered a fresh perspective on operations within PYXERA Global. Over the last year he has been instrumental in leading the operational changes we needed to accommodate our growth and decrease risk,” said Deirdre White, CEO, PYXERA Global, “We are honored that Soud’s dedication and hard work has been recognized through the Inside NGO award.”
