As Manager of Halliburton’s Global eCommerce Department, she leads customer invoicing strategy and execution while advancing the company’s digital capabilities.

Under her leadership, Halliburton successfully deployed electronic invoicing systems across multiple regions—including India, Egypt, Malaysia, Argentina, and Colombia—while ensuring compliance with complex local tax regulations.

A major milestone in her career was spearheading the global implementation of SAP S/4HANA for invoicing systems, streamlining workflows, enabling real-time data processing, and automating compliance across diverse jurisdictions. She has also led the rollout of XML-based invoicing within Halliburton’s digital ecosystem, positioning the company for scalability and automation in its invoicing practices.

In addition to her corporate role, Miledy serves as an Executive-at-Large on the PIDX Board, where she contributes to shaping industry standards for digital collaboration.
