EVMS moves toward use of state procurement system

Please know that vendor activities related to grants/sponsored programs will be performed by the ODU Research Foundation, which is a separate business entity from ODU.  Therefore, you will need to be cognizant of the distinction of how and with whom you are sending vendor purchase requisitions.  

All other vendors that EVMS works with are being asked to register as a supplier with the Commonwealth’s procurement system — electronic Virginia (eVA) — no later than June 15, 2024. This will enable companies to receive ODU purchase orders post-integration. Vendors are also being asked to complete and return the Commonwealth’s W9 form to ensure we have the most up-to-date information in our records.

Training sessions will be provided for both systems in the upcoming months as well as updated FAQs that will be posted on the Integration Website. Please watch for these training communications and be sure to sign up.
