The report creates a so-called RASCI chart, which is used to identify roles and responsibilities in an organizational change process. Since improvement processes do not run on their own, it is necessary to describe who has to do what for an improvement to occur.
The acronym RASCI stands for the initial letters of the responsibilities listed below. In RASCI charts, the connections between organizational units and functions are indicated with the letters R, A, S, C or I.
Responsible (R) - Responsible for implementation. The person(s) providing the initiative for implementation (by others) or performing the activity themselves. More than one person can be responsible.
Accountable (A) - Responsible in the sense of approving, authorizing, or signing off. The person who has the responsibility in a legal or business sense. A single person is responsible for a function in this sense.
Supportive (S). This role indicates that several actors contribute to the function of supporting the person accountable.
Consulted (C). A person whose advice is sought. Also interpreted as a responsibility from a business perspective.
Informed(I) - to be informed. A person who receives information about the progress or result of the activity or has the privileges required to receive information.
The result of the report is an Excel workbook containing several tables. Each process model included creates a table. The first table consists of a full list of the functions and organizational units of the process models included.
