# Delivery Planning Scenario

Synthetic history and example risk flags. These estimates are not a delivery commitment.

## Scenario inputs
- **Backlog scope:** 260 story points
- **Delivery team:** 8 engineers at 72% focus factor
- **Sprint cadence:** 10 business days
- **Target milestone:** Sprint 6 (Nov 16, 2026)

## Forecast
- **Expected sustainable velocity:** 53.0 story points / sprint
- **Monte Carlo trials:** 10,000
- **P50 completion:** Sprint 5 (Nov 2, 2026)
- **P80 completion:** Sprint 6 (Nov 16, 2026)
- **P90 completion:** Sprint 6 (Nov 16, 2026)
- **Probability of target:** 99.3%

## Example feature priorities
- **SSO + SCIM provisioning**: Quick Win; RICE 49.7
- **Portfolio delivery cockpit**: Strategic Bet; RICE 28.1
- **AI release-risk assistant**: Strategic Bet; RICE 12.3
- **Bulk workflow approvals**: Quick Win; RICE 48.6
- **Slack incident digest**: Quick Win; RICE 35.2

## Example delivery risks
- **Scope Creep (High)**: +18% unplanned story points in the last three sprints. Control owner: Delivery Lead; DMAIC phase: Define.
- **Quality Regression (High)**: Escaped defects rose above the 2.0 / sprint control limit. Control owner: Delivery Lead; DMAIC phase: Analyze.
- **Cycle Time Variance (Medium)**: P85 cycle time is 1.6× the team baseline. Control owner: Delivery Lead; DMAIC phase: Measure.

## Planning note
Treat Sprint 6 as a scenario estimate. Check the inputs with the delivery team before making a commitment.
