 RACI Matrix Instructions

Instructional Notes for the RACI Matrix:

The RACI Matrix is a powerful tool to assist in the identification of roles and assigning of cross-
functional responsibilities to a project deliverable or activity.

RACI represents: R - Responsibility, A - Accountable, C - Consulted, and I - Informed

RACI Definitions:

Responsibility = person or role responsible for ensuring that the item is completed
Accountable = person or role responsible for actually doing or completing the item
Consulted = person or role whose subject matter expertise is required in order to complete the
item
Informed = person or role that needs to be kept informed of the status of item completion

Simply place an R, A, C, I or any appropriate combination in each of the applicable roles for each
activity Each Activity should have at least one individual Accountable while there may be shared
responsibilities depending on the activity.
