You have earned our trust and confidence. You’ve helped us build beautiful new homes for thousands of families in Austin, and we are very grateful.

Foundation Communities

BEC Austin (formerly Bailey Elliott Construction) has built one of the highest rated LEED Platinum multi-family housing projects in the country here in Austin... a testament to their knowledge of how to build ethically and responsibly. I have worked with many general contractors in the Austin area and there is not one I would rate higher.

Our experience on all projects was overwhelmingly positive, and BEC Austin remains our consistent top choice as a General Contractor.

Larry & Perry

BEC Austin (formerly Bailey Elliott Construction) has been an integral team member on multiple projects for Foundation Communities. We could not have achieved the level of quality and green building were it not for their dedication to our work and attention to detail. I fully credit BEC with helping us achieve LEED for Homes Platinum and an Austin Energy Green Building 5‐Star rating on M Station Apartments.

Foundation Communities

It has been a pleasure working with you and BEC Austin (formerly Bailey Elliott Construction). Throughout the construction, you and your team demonstrated your commitment to providing a quality product for your client, paying attention to detail while coordinating all aspects of the work. Thank you for the beautifully constructed building.

The Settlement Home

Our firm has had the good fortune to work with BEC Austin (formerly Bailey Elliott Construction) on a number of very successful projects and we are currently working with them on two large multi-family housing projects. Having Scott Wilson and Keith Pool at the table during each phase of the project has brought about very thoughtful discourse and a vital team spirit that makes the often challenging construction process a well-orchestrated, quality driven endeavor.

BEC Austin's motto is "constructing relationships one building at a time" and the entire BEC Austin team stood up to that because we continue to have a great relationship. They also believe construction communication is the key to a successful project and we found they went above and beyond to keep everyone informed, which made a successful project and exceeded my expectations.

The BEC Austin Team

Since 1971, BEC Austin has been building more than structures for our clients—we've been building trust, longevity, and satisfaction.

With a spirit of dedication that began with our founder Bailey Elliott Senior in 1971, business partners Scott Wilson and Keith Pool continued his legacy and infused the company with their own values of community service, integrity, and dedication. Scott and Keith purchased the company in 2001.

This commitment is one of the many reasons our employees stick with us. In fact, Keith and Scott have been with the company since their own college graduations, and carefully hand-select new hires in the rare event of an opening.

That careful team-building focus translates to fantastic collaboration and a history of recommendation-worthy site results: our list of returning clients speaks for itself!

Scott Wilson

President & CEO

Scott brings his impressive experience and community spirit to the table, starting way back in 1981 as the Vice-President and Chief Estimator for the original Bailey Elliott. With projects ranging from a battered women's shelter to several prominent local churches to his credit, like his business partner, he believes in staying personally involved in each project, at every step.

In the past decade, Scott has put his attention into deepening his and BEC Austin’s commitment to sustainable building. With this in mind, he has acquired and maintained certification to become a LEED AP (2008), Green Boot (2010), and a Master Certified Green Professional (2012).

Devin wood

Vice-President of Business Development

Devin joined the BEC team in 2014 as a Project Manager and managed many commercial and multifamily projects as part of the team. In 2020, he moved into the estimating department as Chief Estimator. In 2024, he was promoted to Vice President of Business Development and now oversees all the estimating processes, pre-construction activities, and customer relationships. He has over 20 years of combined experience as an Estimator, Project Manager, and Field Superintendent, and this provides a thorough understanding of all aspects of commercial and residential construction. This experience allows him to assist developers with accurate conceptual budgets and cost projections. His experience working alongside design teams with budgeting and value engineering can provide invaluable cost savings through the project design phase, and his strong relationships with subcontractors in the Austin area provide a wealth of knowledge in all types of construction.
