Scott Coye-Huhn, former Vice President of the Energy, Biomaterials and Circularity (EBC) Division, has been promoted to Chief Operating Officer and Vikas Ahuja, former Vice President of Sales, has been promoted to Senior Vice President of Revenue.

Scott joined SCS in 2020 as Program Manager for the emerging Low Carbon Fuel Regulations program, quickly scaling its impact and earning a promotion to Director. In 2024, he was named Vice President of the rapidly growing Energy, Biomaterials and Circularity (EBC) division, where he has led transformative growth and revitalized core programs.

Scott brings a unique blend of legal, entrepreneurial, and sustainability expertise to his new role. Prior to joining SCS, he co-founded Aloterra, LLC, which pioneered large-scale Miscanthus cultivation for sustainable packaging solutions. Earlier in his career, he specialized in environmental litigation, partnering with state governments to restore contaminated waterways. His strategic mindset, operational acumen, and commitment to innovation make him an outstanding addition to the Executive Leadership Team. Scott holds an M.S.W. from Saint Louis University and a J.D from Cincinnati College of Law.

“Operational excellence is about strategically aligning our people, processes, and priorities to consistently deliver outstanding results for our clients,” said Scott Coye-Huhn. “I’ve been humbled to witness SCS’ unwavering commitment to integrity and excellence and I’m excited to leverage those values to empower our teams to apply their deep industry knowledge and continuous improvement expertise to work smarter, faster, and with greater clarity.”

With over two decades of experience in Sustainability and ESG, Vikas has helped global brands achieve business value through sustainable practices. Early in his career, he played a pivotal role in growing the green building certification GREENGUARD® into a category leader. He joined SCS in 2010 to grow the Indoor Advantage® program, later expanding his impact at companies thinkstep and Sphera through LCA consulting and ESG software solutions. Since rejoining SCS in 2021, Vikas has advanced through key leadership roles, overseeing unprecedented sales growth.

In his new role, Vikas will lead integrated sales and marketing strategies to accelerate growth across the organization. Vikas holds an MBA from the University of South Florida and a BS from the University of Chicago.
