After a project WBS and
OBS are developed, these documents are used to develop the Resource Assignment
Matrix (RAM). The RAM links activities to resources. This matrix is simply a
table for which one axis is the project WBS and the other axis is the OBS. Each
point at which these two structures intersect becomes a work execution element,
and an individual is identified, who is responsible for executing the work. The
RAM makes sure that every task is completed by someone. It also gives a
realistic picture for perspective investors by showing exactly how many
resources are required to finish the project.
