Why each option
The document that maps project roles, responsibilities for tasks, and key decision-makers is typically a Responsibility Assignment Matrix.
TOR typically stands for Terms of Reference, which defines the scope and objectives of a project or committee, but not detailed individual roles and responsibilities.
A Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) decomposes project deliverables into smaller, manageable work packages, not individual roles and responsibilities.
A Responsibility Assignment Matrix (RAM), often in the form of a RACI (Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, Informed) chart, clearly documents each project member's roles, specific responsibilities for tasks, and their involvement in key decisions and milestones. This ensures clarity on who does what and who makes final approvals.
A Statement of Work (SOW) is a document that defines the scope of work for a project, including deliverables, timelines, and requirements, but not specific team member roles and responsibilities.
