Struggling with project roles getting blurred? The RACI matrix template helps you clearly define who’s responsible, accountable, consulted, and informed for every task.
What is a RACI matrix template?
A RACI matrix is a simple yet powerful framework for clarifying roles and responsibilities within a project. It ensures every task has a designated owner and avoids confusion about who does what.
Here’s how it works:
- Responsible (R): The person (or people) doing the work.
- Accountable (A): The one ultimately answerable for the task’s completion.
- Consulted (C): Stakeholders who provide input before work is finalized.
- Informed (I): Those who need updates but aren’t directly involved in execution.
By mapping out these roles, the RACI matrix helps eliminate bottlenecks, reduce miscommunication, and boost efficiency across teams.
Who is it for?
This template is ideal for product marketers, project managers, operations teams, and cross-functional leaders who need to ensure smooth execution of tasks. If you work with multiple stakeholders, collaborate across departments, or manage complex projects, the RACI matrix will help you bring structure to your process.
Common use cases include:
- Product launches with multiple teams involved
- Marketing campaigns requiring clear task ownership
- Operational workflows that need better alignment
- Large-scale initiatives where clarity is crucial
