|---|---|
| Regional expansion | AC/R distribution footprint and contractor relationships |
| Specialty capability | Specialty coating/finishing; fire-sprinkler protection products |
| Logistics & fulfillment | Warehousing, distribution, fulfillment, and kitting |
| Industrial platform build | Consolidation of water well services; added “digital” manufacturing/AI support |
