During a sprint for Amberline Transit's fare-card upgrade, the Product Owner is pulled into an emergency meeting regarding a city council budget hearing. Several developers are blocked because the PO has not yet signed off on three completed stories.

What should the project manager do next?

  1. Collaborate with the team to identify items that can be progressed while waiting for the PO to return.
  2. Request that the fare-card department head provide a temporary backup PO to review the stories immediately.
  3. Accept the completed stories on behalf of the PO so the team can maintain their current velocity.
  4. Log the PO absence as a high-priority risk in the risk register and continue monitoring the situation.
