  • Responsible for project assignments to appropriate project manager(s) for project and client type.
  • Responsible for taking appropriate action to achieve results of accountable activities


Accountable: This person delegates work and is the last one to review the task or deliverable before it's deemed complete. On some tasks, the Responsible party may also serve as the Accountable one.

  • Consulted on appropriate requests for additional services
