RESOLUTE BUILDING COMPANY Founded in 1984, Resolute Building Company is the longest serving general contractor in Chapel Hill. For more than 35 years Resolute has made a positive impact on the community by safely delivering exceptional value, construction excellence, and superior construction service. Resolute has completed hundreds of projects in Chapel Hill, including the Top of the Hill, The Cedars of Chapel Hill, Castalia, East 54, Rashkis Elementary, UNC Wellness Center and numerous Chapel Hill churches and schools. Founder and Chairman of Resolute, Dave Anna, established the company in Chapel Hill after touring the country with his wife, Susan, in their VW camper van. They were in search of a place to start a construction business, and raise a family, and landed in The Southern Part of Heaven. The original intent was for a Chapel Hill based local company where employees would see their families every night, and it remains the same today. CEO and shareholder, Randy Grubb, joined Resolute in 2014 and brought a wealth of experience and vision for the future to the company. Randy is a graduate of West Point and, after his service, he worked on large and complex projects from Washington, D.C., to Hawaii. He is uniquely familiar with the Triangle, having managed the RDU Terminal 2 project and the EPA Headquarters in RTP. Interestingly, Randy’s and Resolute’s paths crossed years ago on joint venture projects at The Cedars of Chapel Hill and East 54, when Randy was then working with Bovis Lend Lease. An integral part of Resolute’s success has been the commitment and long term service of a core executive group. Kim Vrana joined Resolute in 1985, is a shareholder, and currently serves as Director of Pre-construction. David Lent-Bews also joined Resolute in 1985 and currently serves as Vice President, managing key repeat customers and mentoring the next generation of project managers. Giles Williams recently retired after serving 30 years as the Treasurer and Comptroller. This executive group’s experience, industry savvy and market knowledge is second to none and they continue to be an invaluable resource for the company and next generation of leaders. Today, Bryan and Mark Anna serve as Marketing Manager and Assistant Project Manager, respectively, for Resolute, with the goal of continuing their father’s legacy.
