    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

    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.
