Pamlico Capital (“Pamlico”) today announced a strategic growth investment in Beck Technology, the leading preconstruction platform for contractors. Norbert Orth, a senior software executive with deep construction technology experience, will join Beck Technology as CEO. President Stewart Carroll, CTO Mike Boren, and the rest of the management team will maintain ownership in Beck Technology and continue to lead day-to-day operations. Peter Beck, chairman and founder of Beck Technology, will also maintain ownership in the Company.
Headquartered in Dallas, Texas, Beck Technology serves over 200 customers, including some of the largest and most sophisticated contractors in the world. The Company’s platform was built by contractors who understand the challenges faced by customers and the solution offers a modern and streamlined experience that drives preconstruction accuracy, efficiency, and consistency.
“Construction impacts everyone on the planet, and the preconstruction process enables contractors to make better and more informed decisions leading to better and more predictable project outcomes. Pamlico’s deep expertise partnering with founder-owned software businesses like ours made them the ideal partner in this next phase of growth,” said Peter Beck. Stewart Carroll added, “I could not be more excited to work alongside Pamlico and Norbert. They believe in our vision, and their relevant software experience and resources will accelerate the pace at which we can deliver for our customers.”

I am genuinely excited to join the business.”
