The 4 RACI Roles
- Responsible (The "Doer"): The person (or team) who actually performs the work to complete the task. They are hands-on and do the heavy lifting.
Rule of thumb: There should be at least one 'R', but multiple contributors can share this responsibility. - Accountable (The "Owner"): The individual ultimately answerable for the correct and thorough completion of the deliverable. They delegate the work and sign off on the final result.
Rule of thumb: There must be exactly one Accountable person per task to guarantee decision-making authority. - Consulted (The "Expert"): People who provide subject-matter expertise or input before a decision or action is finalized.
Rule of thumb: Communication is two-way. - Informed (The "Loop"): People who need to be kept up-to-date on project progress, usually stakeholders or leadership.
Rule of thumb: Communication is one-way—they are simply updated, not required to make decisions.
