An agile lead is working on a project to build a new product that will bring substantial business value to a company. Company executives want to present the first release at an important industry fair the following month. The agile lead started the project the previous month, and the team planned the release to take 8 iterations. For the past 4 iterations, work has been performed as planned and on time. In the current iteration, however, one team member will be out for the remainder of the project. Without this team member, velocity would drop 30%.
What should the agile lead do to ensure the release will be on time for the fair?
