Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When you need to buy from outside your team
Plan procurement carefully, make it clean
Management plan will guide your way
Contract types and risk display
Fixed Price puts the burden on the seller's side
Cost Reimbursable means buyer takes the ride

[Chorus]
Plan and manage, buy it right
FFP FPIF EPA in sight
CPFF CPIF AF and PC
Time and Materials in between
RFI RFP RFQ IFB
Procurement's how we guarantee

[Verse 2]
Statement of Work defines what you need
Procurement SOW plants the seed
Source selection criteria set the bar
Make or buy analysis takes you far
Bid documents help you find the best
Proposals evaluated, put to test

[Chorus]
Plan and manage, buy it right
FFP FPIF EPA in sight
CPFF CPIF AF and PC
Time and Materials in between
RFI RFP RFQ IFB
Procurement's how we guarantee

[Bridge]
Fixed Price Firm, Incentive Fee, Economic Adjustment too
Cost Plus Fixed Fee, Incentive, Award, Percentage of Cost due
Time and Materials hybrid shared
Contract admin keeps us prepared

[Verse 3]
Administer contracts through the life
Handle claims and resolve the strife
Audits check that all is sound
Closure when the work is found
Complete and meets the quality grade
Procurement success, well planned and made

[Chorus]
Plan and manage, buy it right
FFP FPIF EPA in sight
CPFF CPIF AF and PC
Time and Materials in between
RFI RFP RFQ IFB
Procurement's how we guarantee

[Outro]
From planning through to final close
Procurement management, that's how it goes
