HVIP has been managed by CALSTART, on behalf of the California Air Resources Board, since 2009.

Southern California and the San Francisco Bay area are among the key targets to be addressed by the selected firm. In addition to developing a media relations plan, the scope of work will include providing media and message training to CALSTART staff, participating in monthly planning meetings, actively pitching media and providing counsel on media-related opportunities.
The contract will start on October 1 and run through September 30, 2023. The maximum amount payable under the contract is $150K.
