R A P I D: Rapid Decision-Making Model

The RAPID decision-making model provides a framework for facilitating fast decision making. It defines key roles in the decision making process: Recommend, Agree, Perform, Input, and Decide. The model is intended to map roles and responsibilities for critical decisions, engage stakeholders, and support effective decision making and execution. It is not a project management framework on its own. The RAPID matrix maps roles for specific decisions to ensure accountability.
