The short answer is "No", RACI parent activities do not inherit the roles of the sub-activities by default. Additionally, even RACI sub-activities (or child activities) do not necessarily inherit the roles of their parents, eg. if a person is Informed on Activity A, s/he may or may not be Informed on its child activity B. Clearly, this is not a sign of a healthy RACI matrix, but it can easily happen even with the best Project Managers. Hi Taro,

For example in sub-activity 1 a person has the responsibility role, at sub-activity 2 the same person has the consulted role and at sub-activity 3 the person has the responsibility and accountability role. On the major activity level, can the sum of roles for that person be defined as C+R+A? Do parent activities inherit the RACI roles of the sub-activities?
