Responsibility map
See who owns the business.
Every function of the company, with the responsibilities underneath it and a name against each one. It is the first picture most owners have ever had of their own operating structure, and the gaps in it are the point.

Functions, then responsibilities, then names
Finance, Sales, Marketing, Customer Success, Operations — and beneath each one the things that must happen, with their owner and their backup. Three levels, no more.
The gaps are drawn, not omitted
A responsibility with no owner appears as an empty slot rather than not appearing at all. Absence is precisely how unowned work stays invisible for years.
Concentration is visible at a glance
When one name appears eleven times across three functions, you can see it without running a report. That is usually the moment the map justifies itself.
It is generated, so it stays true
Drawn from the responsibility records rather than maintained as a diagram. A map that has to be redrawn by hand is out of date within a month, which is why most companies' versions are.
Questions this answers
The things you currently have to ask somebody.
Each of these is a question an owner asks regularly and currently answers from memory, a spreadsheet, or by interrupting whoever is nearest.
Who owns customer renewals?
Which responsibilities have no backup?
What depends entirely on one person?
Which function has the most unowned work?
What did Operations own before the reorganisation?
Where this stops
What it does not do.
The map is only as complete as the responsibilities you have recorded. Orglume can suggest the usual ones for a role, but it cannot know what your business quietly depends on until somebody writes it down — and the first version of any company's map is always missing something. That is a feature of the exercise rather than a flaw in it: the missing entries tend to surface the first time somebody goes on holiday.

Where this connects.
Run your team with clarity.
From the moment someone joins to the day their responsibilities are handed over, Orglume keeps your people, their work and your organization connected.
