RACI Chart

A widely used responsibility assignment matrix that tags stakeholders as Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, or Informed for each project activity to clarify how everyone is involved.

Key Points

  • RACI stands for Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, and Informed.
  • Assign one clear Accountable per activity to avoid approval ambiguity; multiple Responsibles may be acceptable.
  • Helps prevent role confusion, handoff gaps, and duplicated effort across teams.
  • Build it with stakeholder input and keep it current as scope and team membership change.

Example

On a data migration project, the data engineer is Responsible for mapping and loading data, the product owner is Accountable for approving the migrated dataset, the security SME is Consulted on access controls, and the executive sponsor is Informed of progress and completion.

PMP Example Question

In a RACI chart, who has final ownership and approval authority for a deliverable?

  1. Responsible
  2. Accountable
  3. Consulted
  4. Informed

Correct Answer: B — Accountable

Explanation: The Accountable role owns the outcome and provides final sign-off, while Responsible does the work, Consulted provides input, and Informed receives updates.

Advanced Project Management — Measuring Project Performance

Move beyond guesswork and status reporting. This course helps you measure real progress, spot problems early, and make confident decisions using proven project performance techniques. If you manage complex projects and want clearer visibility and control, this course is built for you.

This is not abstract theory. You’ll work step by step through Earned Value Management (EVM), learning how cost, schedule, and scope come together to show true performance. You’ll build a solid foundation in EVM concepts, understand why formulas work, and learn how performance data actually supports leadership decisions.

You’ll master Work Breakdown Structures (WBS), control accounts, and budget baselines, then apply core EVM metrics like EAC, TCPI, and variance analysis. Through a detailed real-world example, you’ll forecast outcomes, analyze trends, and understand contingencies and management reserves with confidence.

Learn how experienced project managers monitor performance, communicate results clearly, and take corrective action before projects slip. With practical exercises and hands-on analysis, you’ll be ready to apply EVM immediately. Enroll now and start managing performance with clarity and control.
