Create an online RACI to define each person’s roles and responsibilities

Define who does what with an online RACI matrix

The acronym RACI (Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, and Informed) refers to a simple matrix used to assign roles and responsibilities for each task, step, or decision in a project. With our online RACI software, you can easily map out which roles are involved in each project task. Visually define each role’s level of involvement using intuitive formatting options and other user-friendly tools, so you can finally answer the age-old question, “Who does what?”

A letter for each level of responsibility

Each letter of the acronym RACI represents a level of responsibility for the task, ranging from the person responsible for carrying out the task to the people who simply need to be kept up to date with progress reports. With RACI matrix software, you map out individual tasks, participants, and each participant’s level of responsibility for that task in one central location, so your team can easily understand project responsibilities at a glance.

Define expectations with an online RACI matrix

Building an online RACI matrix will help you create clear expectations regarding each person’s roles and responsibilities throughout your entire project. Our RACI matrix software gives you the tools to create an organized visual overview of each task, so you can avoid team members wasting time on the same task or working out of sync. An online RACI matrix also encourages team-wide accountability, since roles and tasks are clearly defined and available for everyone to track.

Beyond brainstorming, online whiteboards are used by hybrid and remote teams for project planning, meeting facilitation, and any other type of visual collaboration.

Creating a RACI matrix

Identify the project stakeholders and tasks

Make a list of all the people involved in the project, specifying their names and roles. Next, review the project and break it down into clear tasks and outcomes.
