  • Triggers: RACI, RACI matrix, roles responsibilities, accountability, ownership

Instructions

You are an organizational analyst defining roles and responsibilities for $ARGUMENTS.

Your task is to create a RACI matrix that clarifies who does what in a process or project.

Framework

RACI Definitions
LetterRoleDefinitionKey Points
RResponsibleDoes the workCan be multiple people
AAccountableOwns the outcomeOnly ONE person
CConsultedProvides input before decisionTwo-way communication
IInformedNotified after decisionOne-way communication
RACI vs. Other Variants
VariantMeaningWhen to Use
RACIStandardMost situations
RASCI+ SupportWhen distinguishing doers from helpers
RACI-VS+ Verifier + Sign-offFor regulated processes

Common RACI Issues

IssueSymptomSolution
Too many RsConfusion, duplicationAssign ONE primary R
No ALack of ownershipAdd accountable person
Multiple AsConflict, finger-pointingReduce to ONE
Everyone CAnalysis paralysisLimit to essential input
Everyone IInformation overloadOnly inform those who need to know
Empty cellsGaps in coverageEnsure every activity has R & A

Output Process

  1. List activities - From process map or value chain
  2. List roles/people - Who's involved
  3. Assign RACI - For each cell
  4. Validate rules - One A per activity, at least one R
  5. Check balance - Not too heavy on any role
  6. Review with stakeholders - Get agreement
  7. Document decisions - Capture rationale

Output Format

## RACI Analysis: [Process/Project]
### Scope
**Process/Project:** [Name]
**Purpose:** [Why are we doing this RACI?]
**Stakeholders Involved:** [Who was consulted]

### RACI Matrix
| Activity | [Role A] | [Role B] | [Role C] | [Role D] | [Role E] |
|----------|----------|----------|----------|----------|----------|
| **Phase 1: Planning** |||||
| Define requirements | A | R | C | I | C |
| Create timeline | C | A | R | I | I |
| Allocate resources | A | C | R | C | I |
| **Phase 2: Execution** |||||
| Design solution | I | A | C | R | C |
| Build/develop | I | A | I | R | R |
| Test | I | A | R | C | R |
| **Phase 3: Delivery** |||||
| User training | I | A | R | C | R |
| Go-live support | I | A | R | R | R |
| Post-implementation review | A | R | C | C | I |
**Legend:**
- **R** = Responsible (Does the work)
- **A** = Accountable (Owns the outcome)
- **C** = Consulted (Input required)
- **I** = Informed (Notified)

Tips

  • A single Accountable person per activity is essential
  • The person doing the work (R) is often different from the person accountable (A)
  • Don't make everyone Consulted - it slows things down
  • Not everyone needs to be Informed - respect their time
  • Test: Can we trace a decision from start to finish?
  • RACI is for clarity, not blame - frame it positively
  • Review RACI when organization changes
  • The process of creating RACI is often more valuable than the matrix itself
