In managing workload and customer service expectations, the PNT and IAG Managers are guided by the Pre-Award Responsibility Matrix above. PNT and IAG collaborate, coordinate or take the lead on an action that is outside this Responsibility Matrix. Additionally, regardless of the Matrix above, tasks may be assigned to either PNT or IAG by upper management for professional development or to address workload capacity issues. The PNT and IAG Workload managers will be notified when this occurs.
