go here: http://jqueryui.com/demos/tabs/

click on "Methods" tab. read about the 'URL' method.

presumably, your product_add.cfm page adds a product using ajax post? if
so, the callback function should receive the id of newly added product
and then call the url() method on the other tabs (and maybe load()
method as well - can't remember now if just setting a new url reloads
the tab or not...)

your url(0 method calls will look like this:
$("#productAdmin").tabs('url', 1, 'productBuilder-Categories.cfm?id='+id);
