From Chapter One: "I know there are a lot of books out there on the subject of negotiation Before you finish reading, you will have heard about several more books. All of the books mentioned in these pages are excellent sources of information. I have used them repeatedly myself. But, as I read them, I began to realize that they were focused on the individual. They advised the individual buyer or seller on how to get a better deal. None of them discussed how an entire company can orientate itself in order to get the best possible deal. There was, in short, no book on devising, implementing and maintaining a company-wide strategic plan for negotiation. There was no book which told company executives and their managers and employees how to integrate new and proven methods of inventory management, quality control, supplier base management, process control, set-up reduction and so on. Each and every one of these innovations in management philosophy is a powerful cost reduction tool. A supplier, who uses these innovations and who can guarantee 100% on-time delivery, 100% quality and 100% accurate quantities, has a lot of negotiating clout because the emphasis is being placed on cost, not price. 
This book provides a new concept to fill the void in the current literature available about negotiating in a World Class and global marketplace. I've hinted that the first area we will cover is the development of a company strategy based on Total Cost, not pricing; Total Quality Control, not inspection; Just-In-Time Delivery; Supplier Certification, or conformance to requirement; and Statistical Process Control, or the "how-to" method. Other areas which will be covered are as follows: 
Structuring procurement to support World Class requirements. Developing a partnership with suppliers and customers based on proven cooperation and trust. Stating requirements for strategic planning and negotiation. Using negotiation tactics in a win/win environment..

Peter L. Grieco, Jr., drawing on over 25 years of experience in the purchasing field, provides readers with the basics of purchasing ethics. Grieco also sets out a systematic method for raising the ethics level of the purchasing department. Purchasing Ethics covers topics such as the role of management, legal considerations, the human factor, and ethics in everyday situations. And throughout the book there is a dual emphasis on both the company and the individual. 
Meeting the ethics challenge is not only the right thing to do, it is the profitable thing to do! Weave ethical behavior into the fabric of a company and the result is an environment of trust and respect. Trust and respect foster a more creative and entrepreneurial spirit among workers who are no longer afraid of making mistakes which are essential to the growth of any company. An unethical company is often an inefficient company. For this reason alone, ethics is a critical asset to an organization. The strategies presented in this book can boost a company's performance through the implementation of an ethics process.
