Some common misconceptions about the RACI matrix in project management include the belief that it is overly complex, unnecessary, or that it restricts team flexibility. In reality, the RACI matrix is a simple and effective tool for clarifying roles and responsibilities within a project. It does not restrict flexibility but rather provides a clear framework for decision-making and accountability.

The RACI matrix aids in tracking project progress by mapping out every task, milestone, or key decision involved in completing a project and clarifying assigned roles. Each team member is designated as Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, or Informed for different tasks. This clear delineation of roles and responsibilities helps in tracking the progress of the project.
