Fenwick Grid is delivering an infrastructure software suite with a hard regulatory deadline in 16 weeks (8 two-week sprints). The current backlog is 310 points. The team's historical velocity range is [20, 36] with an average of 31.

What should the project manager do first?

  1. Escalate to the steering committee to request an immediate extension of the 16-week regulatory deadline.
  2. Update the risk register to note that the project is currently 'On Track' based on average velocity.
  3. Ask the team to increase their commitment per sprint to ensure the 310 points are finished by the date.
  4. Compute the capacity gap and present a quantified descope recommendation to the sponsor.
