When HITT Contracting Inc. completed its 80th year in business in 2017, the Falls Church, Va.-based builder wasted no time making its 81st year memorable, too. HITT began 2018 with a handoff of operating management responsibilities to a new team made up, for the first time, of non-Hitt family members—including Kim Roy, one of the few women to hold a CEO role among ENR’s Top 100 contractors.
HITT also continued its decade-long organic growth trend by capitalizing on the construction boom in data centers and other mission-critical facilities in its Northern Virginia backyard. It has delivered more than 150 megawatts of essential IT infrastructure during the year for “enterprise, hyperscale and colocation” data center firms and telecommunications clients. Contract terms bar HITT from disclosing the names of most of these clients.
