Responsibility levels
Specifying Responsibilities
HOPEX solutions enable definition of responsible users for some of the objects via the RACI matrix.
*RACI is the acronym of Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, Informed.
Responsibility levels
The proposed responsibility levels are as follows:
 
Responsibility
Explanation
Responsible
Persons responsible for execution of required actions.
Accountable
Persons reporting on progress of planned actions and making decisions.
There is only one "Accountable" for each action.
Consulted
Persons consulted as first priority before an action or decision.
Informed
Must be informed after an action or decision.
HOPEX enables specification of the responsibility level of the various persons:
• on a business or organizational process,
• on a risk,
• on a control.

One or various persons can take responsibility for a specific object.
To specify the persons concerned by a specific object:
1. In an object property pages, expand the Responsibilities section.
2. Create responsibility assignations in one of the following tabs:
• Responsible
