What the matrix prevents
Most device rollout delays come from unclear ownership. The Sample Responsibility Matrix records who owns each decision and which evidence must exist before a sample is accepted.
Responsibility matrix template
| Area | Customer / partner | Vantora | External dependency | Acceptance evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Workflow and app behavior | Provide APK, test account, expected task flow and pass/fail rules | Install, configure and test the app on shortlisted hardware | App backend, API availability and account permissions | Recorded app test result and open issue list. |
| Device model and accessories | Confirm environment, users, accessories and quantity range | Recommend model, accessory kit and staging group | OEM model availability and accessory lead time | Accepted model, accessory list and known constraints. |
| Management and restrictions | Define allowed apps, user permissions and support expectations | Configure MDM/EMM path or launcher behavior where supported | MDM provider, OEM policy surface and Android version | Policy group, reset path and restricted-function record. |
| Network and target market | List country, carrier, SIM/APN, Wi-Fi and certification expectations | Map radio, model and documentation assumptions | Carrier, local regulator and certificate holder | Market fit note and unresolved approval items. |
| Batch staging and handoff | Approve labels, packaging, site groups and handoff format | Stage devices and record identifiers, app version and policy group | Logistics provider, importer and local service path | Batch staging record and delivery pack. |
Download and adapt the matrix
Use this template during sample review, then copy the accepted ownership rows into the build spec and staging record.
FAQ
Is this the same as a formal RACI?
It is a practical RACI-style ownership matrix for sample review. Formal legal responsibility still belongs in project agreements.
Why include external dependencies?
External dependencies make conditional items visible, such as OEM availability, MDM behavior, carrier acceptance or local certification review.
When should the matrix be filled?
Fill it before or during sample review, then update it when the sample is accepted and before production staging starts.
