Peak One · Template
Unclear roles cost more than unclear tasks. A small matrix settles who decides what.
A RACI matrix assigns each task who does it, who decides, who advises and who is informed. In the demo you fill in a small matrix.

How the template is built
R · Responsible
The person who does the work. There can be several, but one should lead.
A · Accountable
The person who decides and signs off the result. Exactly one per task.
C · Consulted
People whose advice is sought beforehand. Two-way exchange.
I · Informed
People who are told about the outcome. One-way information.
Check rules
Each row has exactly one A. A person with very many Rs is a bottleneck. Rows without an R do not get done.
An example
Shop migration at Nordwind Travel Goods
Example: For „Switch payment provider“ Jonas is R, the managing director A, accounting C and customer service I. The matrix also shows that Jonas is R in six of eight rows. The team reassigns two tasks.
Honest limits
RACI is not its own field in Peak One
Peak One knows one owner per task and roles in the workspace (owner, admin, member, guest). Today you keep a full RACI matrix outside or in the task description.

Frequently asked questions
Can a task have two As?
No. With two deciders, nobody decides in the end. If it seems unavoidable, the task is usually too big.
When is a RACI matrix worth it?
For projects with several teams or outside partners, and whenever decisions get stuck.
How does RACI differ from access rights?
RACI describes responsibility. In Peak One, roles and access profiles control who can see and change what.
One A per row.
When it is clear who decides, projects run more calmly. Try the matrix in the demo.
