The Liaison Manager application allows Delegate Authorities to manage their unit's liaisons. Liaisons are staff members within each department who have been designated to fulfill a specific role on behalf of their department. Individuals can have more than one liaison role for one or many departments and have access to various tools to fulfill that role.
