Programs stall when everyone assumes someone else owns a thing. Keel’s RACI matrix makes ownership explicit (who’s Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, and Informed across your program), so accountability is written down, not assumed.
What raci matrix does
Responsible / Accountable / Consulted / Informed
Assign the four classic RACI roles across your program so each area has an unambiguous owner and the right people are looped in.
Clarity auditors and teams both want
A clear responsibility model answers “who owns this control?”, a question auditors ask and teams need settled.
Why it matters
- Kill the “I thought you had it” gaps in your program
- Give every control and task an explicit owner
- Answer auditor questions about ownership at a glance

What is a RACI matrix?
A responsibility assignment matrix that maps who is Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, and Informed for each area of work, a standard way to make ownership explicit.
Why does compliance need one?
Auditors ask who owns each control, and programs fail when ownership is assumed rather than assigned. A RACI matrix settles it in writing.
