Subsequent analysis of submitted solutions by technical and subject matter experts will be used to develop a way ahead recommendation for each PGL item. III. Prioritized Gap List (PGL): The FY20-39 PGL contains the Command's most enduring and critical capability gaps and each entry includes in depth detail to include: a gap description, background information, major components, and their attendant measures of merit. It is a classified document and is currently hosted in electronic form on a classified network.
