RACI charts can be used as a tool to manage the key roles and responsibilities of a project.

Creating a RACI chart can be a challenge and takes practice. In this assignment, you will

create and submit a RACI chart. As the project manager, you have been tasked with

determining the roles of team members. There are no “right” or “wrong” answers, but several

ways to interpret how the tasks and resources should be allocated. 

Create a RACI chart for a website reveal based on the tasks listed below. You may use the

provided RACI Excel template. 

Project: Launching new website at company picnic

Task: Taylor, the company’s Senior Vice President (SVP), told you that you’ll be surprising

the 100+ employees of your company with the launch of the new website at the company

picnic next month. She said she trusts your judgement but would like to run the final plan

across A.J., the head of HR, who is in charge of the picnic. Everyone in the company has

been working on some part of the website for over a year. You need to work the exciting

reveal into the company picnic. Your committee – made up of project managers from across

the company – needs to complete the following tasks:

o Create signage.

o Create a fun way to reveal the new website.

o Write up FAQs about the new website.

o Create a teaser to send out prior to the picnic.

o Schedule time to work together.

o Create a timeline for the reveal.

Committee Members: You, Zarina, Erika, Jonas, and Mike

Submit your RACI chart.
