About this file

This is a vendor manual for the Electronic Vendor Application of Qualifications (eVAQ) portal administered by the State of California. The document provides comprehensive guidance on how vendors can register, access, and utilize the eVAQ system to submit qualification applications. The manual outlines the registration process, which requires vendors to create user accounts through the portal at https://cadtprod.service-now.com/vendor, after which STP staff approves the request and issues temporary login credentials. The eVAQ form itself is structured across five pages and contains the same questions previously found on traditional PDF applications. Vendors can save their progress at any time, with data persisting upon subsequent logins, and they can attach required documentation through buttons located at the top and bottom of each page. The form cannot be submitted until all questions are completed; the system will highlight any unanswered questions in red to guide vendors toward completion.

Upon submission, vendors are directed to a main dashboard where they can view their submitted record and access a comments section at the bottom of the form to communicate with their eVAQ administrator. The portal allows vendors to view the status of their applications—whether saved, submitted, or accepted—through a clearly labeled key on the right side of the main page. For technical support or questions regarding portal usage and bug reports, vendors are instructed to contact enea.antonicelli@state.ca.us, with a guaranteed response within 48 hours.

The empty space on the right of the buttons is reserved for when you save or submit an eVAQ.

The key on the right explains the three possible states.

The eVAQ number field can be clicked on, and it will take you to your saved, submitted, or accepted eVAQ.

eVAQ Form The eVAQ form provides the vendor with the same questions that used to be on the traditional PDF form. They are split into 5 pages.

Each question has an info button on the right which expands the explanation for that question.

Adding and saving attachments

Required forms can be located on the “Required Forms” tab:

The form has an attachment button at the top and bottom of each page for ease of access.

The data on the form can be saved at any time. If a record is saved, when you log back in, the data you entered last will persist.

If you attach documents and save the form, the show attached files button will be displayed.

This button, when expanded, will show a list of everything that has already been attached. It can be maximized and minimized at any time to keep the list neatly tucked away.

Submitting the form

The form cannot be submitted until all questions are answered. If you attempt to submit without filling everything out, you will receive an error and the questions that still need to be filled out will turn red. You will need to navigate to the various pages and ensure all the red questions have been answered:

Once you submit the form, you will be taken to the main splash page where you can see the newly submitted record. Clicking this record will take you to a different form view in ServiceNow which gives you access to the comments section towards the bottom of the form:

You will utilize this area to interact with your eVAQ administrator.
