W. Gaschutz [5] introduced a conjugacy class of subgroups of a finite soluble group called the prefrattini subgroups. These subgroups have the property that they avoid the complemented chief factors of G and cover the rest. Subsequently, these results were generalized by Hawkes [12], Makan [14; 15] and Chambers [2]. Hawkes [12] and Makan [14] obtained conjugacy classes of subgroups which avoid certain complemented chief factors associated with a saturated formation or a Fischer class. Makan [15] and Chambers [2] showed that if W, D and V are the prefrattini subgroup, 𝔍-normalizer and a strongly pronormal subgroup associated with a Sylow basis S, then any two of W, D and V permute and the products and intersections of these subgroups have an explicit cover-avoidance property.
