RACI Matrix Builder
Build a RACI matrix for risk management planning activities, distinguish Responsible, Accountable, Consulted and Informed roles, and connect each activity to its management result.
Clarify Responsibility and Accountability Across Risk Management Planning.
This demonstration uses the supplied “RACI for Risk Management Activities” example. It maps five Plan Risk Management activities across the Project Management Team and other participants, Risk Manager, Risk Expert and Project Manager, while also showing the result produced by each activity.
- Responsible (R): performs or leads the work.
- Accountable (A): owns the outcome or final decision.
- Consulted (C): provides input through two-way communication.
- Informed (I): receives information through primarily one-way communication.
- The supplied example contains R, A and C assignments; no I assignment is shown in the source matrix.
- The Result column connects role assignments to the tangible output of each activity.
