With regard to the Industrial Revolution versus the industrial boom, the Industrial Revolution was more than likely when most of the new designs were first created.

Once the veracity of these designs were proven, a widespread industrial boom followed all across the Empire. This obviously would take place afterwards therefore explaining why the boom came much later. Factories would have to be set up in in order for the items to be mass produced, trade route would have to be created to sell the items, ventures would have to be set up and applied to distribute the items.
