i find it hard to believe you're involved in such project. "more portable", "more secure" don't mean anything unless details are involved. i mean, if it runs on your target hosts, what could "more portable" possibly mean?
it's better to say: i'm trying out these two and i want a comparison. lying, saying your boss wants a bsd solution, doesn't make it seem more important!

The only problem might be the lack of certain features on OpenBSD, such as support for a modern filesystem. As I said, I don't know much about BSDs, so don't flame at me if I say something incorrect.
