#### Video transcript

With your goals and use cases defined, the next question becomes simple, but critical. Who's responsible for making this project successful? Linux implementations involve multiple teams, and without clearly defined roles and responsibilities, even well-planned projects can lose momentum. As the project manager, it's your job to establish a clear team structure and communication framework. Most Linux projects include several key roles. The project sponsor provides executive oversight, approves budgets, and helps remove organizational blockers when they arise. The project manager, which may be you, oversees day-to-day execution, manages timelines and risks, and ensures communication stays aligned across multiple teams. The marketing lead defines campaign strategies, audience segments, and activation goals. The technical lead, or architect, defines the data architecture and integration framework. This role ensures that APIs, SDKs, and data pipelines are designed in a way that is scalable and secure. The data engineer, or IT team, typically handles the technical integration of data sources into the platform. They evaluate API access, data formats, and transformation requirements. You'll often have an analytics lead responsible for defining KPIs, building reporting dashboards, and measuring campaign performance. And finally, many implementations include a Linux consultant or implementation partner, who brings platform expertise and supports configuration and troubleshooting. To keep responsibilities clear across all these roles, many teams use a project management framework known as RACI. RACI stands for Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, and Informed. Responsible refers to the person doing the work. Accountable is the person who ultimately owns the outcome. Consulted includes subject matter experts who provide input. And informed includes stakeholders who need visibility into progress. By defining these roles early, you reduce confusion, clarify ownership, and create a project structure that allows decisions to happen efficiently. For a complex implementation, like a customer data platform, that clarity can make the difference between a smooth rollout and constant misalignment. Be sure to download the example and blank RACI charts from the Academy site.
