Abstract

Six Sigma has been used for many organizations around the world and significant benefits havebeen reported in relation to productivity and quality improvement, process lead time reduction andcost avoidance for critical processes. In this context one of the most relevant questions is related tothe way Six Sigma projects have been selected and prioritized. It seems to be a not very wellexplored issue by industries and the consequences of not using a robust approach for this task canbe very negative, once “visible” problems tends to decrease or disappear by time. So, this articlepresents a proposal for a Conceptual Model for Six Sigma Project Portfolio Management mainlybased on literature. This model is part of an “on going” academic work and will be used as mainreference for future field researches, investigating the Six Sigma Project Portfolio Management in Brazilian automotive industries.
