RA(S)CI - Output organizational participations in processes
Use
This report supplies information on which organizational elements participate in the activities (functions) of a process and in what manner. Organizational responsibilities and participations are output in a matrix.
The report returns plausible results if your processes and the organizational responsibilities for the individual activities conform to the modeling conventions required.
RA(S)CI stands for Responsible, Accountable, (Supportive), Consulted, Informed.
By default, this report does not return any Supportive information. To output this information, your script administrator must set the g_bRASCI variable to true.
The matrix shows which organizational unit participates in activities of a process and in what manner:
Responsible indicates who assumes execution responsibility. It shows who is responsible for performing an activity and who actually performs it, but also who assumes the disciplinary responsibility.
Accountable identifies the person ultimately answerable for the correct and thorough completion of a task. Thus, 'Accountable' may be the one in charge of managing the costs, that is, the one who assumes project budget responsibility. The decides on and accepts connections are evaluated in order to mark this responsibility.
Consulted shows who has a consulting role. This organizational unit - typically a group of subject matter experts - is asked for advice prior to a final decision being made or a final action being taken.
Informed specifies who must be informed. It indicates who is kept up to date on the progress or completion of a task.
In the RACI matrix, RACI data is displayed under the following conditions:
The connections are used in the selected process model.
The connections are used in a function allocation diagram that is assigned to a function of the selected process model.
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.
