Why each option

To ensure specific activities within a new governance framework are performed by the correct resources, a RACI chart is the most effective tool.

Aa RACI chart.Correct

A RACI (Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, Informed) chart clearly defines roles and responsibilities for specific tasks or decisions within a project or process. By assigning each key activity to the appropriate stakeholders with R, A, C, or I roles, it directly ensures that the right resources are involved and performing the necessary actions.

Ban organizational breakdown structure.

An organizational breakdown structure (OBS) defines the project's organizational hierarchy but does not detail who is responsible for specific tasks.

Ca work breakdown structure.

A work breakdown structure (WBS) decomposes a project into smaller, manageable tasks, but it does not assign specific roles and responsibilities to those tasks.

Concept tested: Role and responsibility assignment (RACI)
