The NMS is typically the system that would receive notifications
from the various bits of kit on the network.   It might also be able
to query the notification log tables to pick up on traps that were
never received (for whatever reason).

In terms of the "reliable dispatch" that you originally described,
no - the NMS system would not be involved at all (other than as
the destination of these traps).   Any spooling and re-sending of
failed notifications would have to be handled by the individual
boxes themselves.
   There isn't a standard mechanism for handling this (other than
the normal "retry N times" for INFORM notifications), so it's
something you would have to develop yourself.
