Directive 51 in-game basically makes Agents on par with the President in terms of rank, meaning the EPA and JTF are outranked by Agents. However, generally speaking, SHD commanders tell their subordinates to coordinate and follow orders of other agencies to ensure that a goal is accomplished.

Also, according to the book, agents have autonomy to prioritize tasks based on urgency according to their training and SHD protocols. This means that, should priorities change while an agent is doing a task, they can break off and attend to the more pressing matter.
