(PowerSteering: Cambridge, Massachusetts) --PowerSteering, an on-demand, enterprise project portfolio management (PPM) software used to manage Six Sigma, information technology, product development and other enterprise initiatives, has announced its full support of an open, "bipartisan" approach to Six Sigma project selection methods at the upcoming IQPC Lean Six Sigma & Process Improvement Summit in Orlando, Florida, January 28-30, 2008.

"We saw the timing of the Florida presidential primary as a terrific backdrop to underscore the importance of not letting politics factor into the project selection process for Six Sigma or any other strategic initiative. We support a democratic approach to project selection based on consistent analysis and balanced against resource requirements and Enterprise value," declares David Boghossian, PowerSteering founder, chief strategy officer and registered independent. "Project selection need no longer take place in a smoke-filled room, to the extent there are any smoke-filled rooms left."
