Responsibility assignment matrix

A responsibility assignment matrix, RACI matrix (responsible, accountable, consulted and informed matrix; /ˈreɪsi/) or linear responsibility chart, is a project management technique that describes the responsibilities of various stakeholders in completing tasks or deliverables. The matrix assigns one of four responsibilities to each stakeholder in executing a deliverable: Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, and Informed.

Under the RACI framework:

  • Responsible stakeholders are involved in the planning, execution, and completion of the task;
  • Accountable stakeholders are held to be individually and ultimately responsible for the success or failure of the task;
  • Consulted stakeholders are sought for their opinions on a task;
  • Informed stakeholders are updated as the project progresses.
