He concluded by stressing that this achievement belongs to every employee at Orange Jordan, whose dedication remains the cornerstone of the company’s success.
Executive Director of KACE, H.E. Eng.

She added that the “Recognized for Excellence” program represents a comprehensive organizational growth journey that enables institutions to evaluate their performance, invest in improvement opportunities, and foster a culture of innovation and sustainability. She affirmed that receiving the Recognized for Excellence certification, with a 6-star evaluation, reflects Orange Jordan’s unwavering commitment to adopting global best practices while underscoring its ability to achieve sustainable organizational performance in line with the highest international standards, making it the first telecom company worldwide to reach this level of recognition, and a Jordanian success story worthy of celebration.
