COBIT 2019 Foundation — Question 62

Within an organizational structure chart (RACI chart), which role drives a given task or process?

Answer options

• A. Responsible (R) role
• B. Accountable (A) role
• C. Informed (I) role

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The Responsible (R) role is the one that actually performs the work and drives the task to completion. The Accountable (A) role oversees the task and ensures it meets objectives but does not directly execute the work. The Informed (I) role is kept updated on progress but does not participate in the task execution.
