RFP usually means Request for Proposal. Not anymore. Resist First Profanity is a survival guide for procurement professionals who know that the textbook version of the job and the version that happens on Tuesday afternoon are rarely the same thing. Across 192 illustrated pages, you'll encounter the stakeholders, suppliers, specifications, tenders, negotiations and meetings that make procurement professionals quietly reconsider their career choices. The requirement that isn't actually a requirement. Each situation asks a simple question: What do you say when what you're thinking probably shouldn't appear in the meeting minutes? Part workplace satire, part procurement therapy and part practical field manual, Resist First Profanity celebrates the absurd reality of getting procurement done when suppliers, stakeholders, deadlines and human nature become involved. Designed to be dipped into rather than studied, it's ideal for the desk drawer, coffee break, post-meeting recovery session or as a Secret Santa gift for the procurement professional who has seen absolutely everything. No theory. No fluff. Just procurement. Resist First Profanity is the unofficial companion to the Procurement for the Real World (PFRW) six-book methodology — professional procurement principles built for what actually happens at work.
The supplier who's already been promised the business.
The stakeholder who wants three competitive quotes by tomorrow.
The tender that needs rerunning because the preferred supplier didn't win.
And the suspiciously perfect procurement process that surely means somebody should check the audit trail.
