I'm familiar with the group in LA. I really liked them and the head of the office is a rain maker. He is not afraid to jump into your models with you and take a poke around. They're a pretty technical group
They are industrials focused, as you mentioned, focusing on the construction services industry, although they are interested in expanding to industrial technology. Just like you will with tech, you're going to have to justify why that would interest you and speak to it.
