If the company has any framework of Policy documents like Best Practice, ISO
whatever.  You need to establish that it is company policy to be 'honesty'
and act with 'integrity' in respect of software licencing. 'Best practice'
buzword, busword. 

If the framework exists they can hardly not accept this. 

Then you have the mechanism. You may then have to claim professional
integrity and refuse to move against the policy. Nothing gets installed
without an order form for the license. ;-)
