Project Overview
The San Carlos Pumping Station was a $9 million design-build rehabilitation project for the City of Tampa, Florida. Originally placed into service in 1981, the station required replacement of aging pumps, motors, discharge valves, electrical controls, and flow meters, along with new systems for odor control, wet well screenings management, and backup power. The redesigned station needed to handle peak wet weather flows of 38,000 GPM. PRESWERX supported the client's pursuit with a complete package of materials including a structured proposal, architectural renderings, animations, and a custom film to communicate the technical scope and approach to the selection committee.

Client Challenges
Communicating a technically complex infrastructure scope to a municipal selection committee required more than standard engineering submittals:
Multiple interconnected systems made it difficult to present the rehabilitation as a single cohesive story without strong visual support.
The design-build delivery method required the client to demonstrate coordinated planning across design, phasing, and operations.
A competitive procurement demanded materials capable of reaching both technical and non-technical reviewers on the selection committee.
Every element of the pursuit package needed to work together to support a clear, credible case for the client's approach.

Scope of Work
PRESWERX delivered a full pursuit package for the San Carlos Pumping Station design-build competition. The scope included a structured proposal organized around the City of Tampa's procurement requirements, architectural renderings that illustrated proposed facility improvements and equipment configurations, animations that brought the rehabilitation approach to life for a non-technical audience, and a custom film that distilled the client's qualifications and technical methodology into a compelling visual presentation. Each deliverable was developed to function both independently and as part of a unified submission, giving the client a consistent and professional presentation throughout the selection process.


PRESWERX Approach
PRESWERX approached the project as an integrated content challenge, developing all deliverables in parallel so each one reinforced the same technical narrative.
The team worked with the client's engineers to translate complex pump station parameters into clear, accessible visuals and written language.
Renderings and animations were built around the specific equipment configurations and facility improvements proposed for the City of Tampa.
The film served as the capstone deliverable, presenting the client's team and methodology in a format suited to review committee presentation.
Each piece was designed to work independently and as part of a unified whole.
Results Delivered
PRESWERX delivered a complete, multi-format pursuit package built to the demands of a major municipal design-build procurement.
The structured proposal organized the client's technical approach into a clear and reviewable response to the City of Tampa's requirements.
Renderings and animations gave the selection committee a visual understanding of the proposed rehabilitation scope before construction began.
The film presented the client's team, qualifications, and technical vision in a polished, broadcast-quality format ready for committee review.
The client entered the selection process with a coordinated and professional set of materials that matched the scale and complexity of the project.
