You have this entire forum cheering for your success and wanting the best for you. I'm so sorry that you have to face this nightmare scenario, but I do hope it's resolved quickly.

At a project meeting just now:

Project Tech: "We really need make sure that we're asking about size preferences when quoting equipment to customers. We had a huge problem with a printer we ordered for %client% not fitting where the old printer was."

Me: "We already have a process for this. There's a checklist of questions we're supposed to run through with every customer that wants new equipment that asks all of this. I made it myself and technicians are supposed to be following this process."

Project Manager: "Yeah we really need to nail down a process for this. Let's schedule a meeting with [everyone except larches] and come up with something."

Me: "We already have a process for this. Everyone should follow the established process."

Technology Director: "Well we aren't doing a lot of stuff we should be doing."

Me: "Not helpful, we need to retrain on the established process with technicians at the next helpdesk huddle. This is a concrete action item that can be scheduled for next week."

Project Manager: "Yeah, let's schedule a meeting with [everyone except larches] and come up with something."

Me: :suicide:

EDIT: I just outlined the whole process in Teams in a very self-serving and petulant way and I'm about to Rip and Tear™ these fools when this promotion goes through.

It just means they don't actually want it fixed, they just want to talk about it being fixed.

Only if a venerable goon such as yourself makes it.
