RACI
Roles and Responsibilities
A RACI chart or also called a RACI matrix is the backbone of any project that is being carried out inside the organization or externally with customers. When done proactively, a proper developed RACI chart allows all parties to fully understand each activity and who is responsible to implement each of the decisions made during the project timeline
RACI charts are a type of responsibility assignment matrices in project management. These simple spreadsheets or tables highlight the different states of responsibility a stakeholder has over a particular task or deliverable and denotes it with the letters R, A, C, or I.
