About Us

Our Story

Software is a people business.

Software is a people business

At Red Barn Software, we believe the best technology solutions come from understanding people first — their challenges, their workflows, and their goals.

We're not a factory. We're a consultancy that brings senior-level expertise directly to your project, without layers of management or junior handoffs. When you work with us, you're working with the people who write the code.

From Fortune 500 enterprises to ambitious startups, we've helped organizations build custom software, integrate AI into their workflows, and modernize their technology — always with an emphasis on solutions that actually get used.

The Team

Red Barn Software is a small, experienced team led by its founder since 2007. Four senior professionals — and the people you talk to are the people who build your software. That's how we've kept clients for over fifteen years, and how we plan to keep the next ones.

Paul Millefolie

35+ years building software and leading teams across industries.

How We Work

Straight Talk

No jargon walls or inflated timelines. We tell you what's realistic, what's risky, and what we'd do if it were our money.

Senior Expertise

Every project gets experienced engineers who've shipped production software across industries. No bait-and-switch staffing.

Long-Term Thinking

We build partnerships, not just projects. Our best client relationships are measured in years, not sprints.

“
I was grandfathered into working with Red Barn Software after the previous business owner initiated the relationship years ago, and I am so glad I chose to continue it. … I would highly recommend Red Barn to anyone looking for a reliable partner to help grow their business.
Janece Marzano — President, T.A. Davis & Associates

Working with Public Agencies

Red Barn Software is certified by the Virginia Department of Small Business and Supplier Diversity as both a Small and Micro Business (certification #845696, valid through August 2031). We are an active registered supplier in eVA, the Commonwealth's procurement system (VLIN VA00225615), and we accept purchasing cards.

For agencies, universities and localities, that means custom software work can often be purchased through small purchase and set-aside procedures rather than a full solicitation. If you have a project and are trying to work out the right path to procure it, we're happy to help you figure that out.
