  • Provide support and training to delivery agents to promote understanding of the Management and Reporting System (MARS) including eligibility, administrative processes, and documentation requirements for disaster recovery funding.
  • Provide guidance or support to delivery agents with meeting the assurance and audit requirements of various programs.
