This study aims to improve the organizing function of the East Nusa Tenggara Provincial Liaison
Agency from the perspective of collaboration and organizational structure. The collaboration that was built was
still tentative and situational as well as the organizational structure depicted in the division of tasks and
functions that are very broad with limited authority. Collaboration and organizational structure are important
elements in organizing as one of the management functions that need to be improved so that the NTT Provincial
Liaison Agency is able to adapt to global changes and changes in the governance structure of NTT Province
2018-2023. This study uses a qualitative description to be the right choice oriented towards a deepening
understanding of the organization that will produce descriptive information about collaboration and
organizational structure of the Liaison Agency of the Province of East Nusa Tenggara Province. Data collection
tecniques including in-depth interviews focus discussion groups (FGD), documentary studies and online data
search. The results of the study showed that the collaboration that was built was formal and did not produce
quality deliberation while the organizational structure was not yet flexible and centralized although it had
supported the coordination function of the Regional Liaison Agency, but in its implementation was not optimal,
had a low hierarchy.
