Velocity = 40 story points per sprint
Remaining Work = 240 story points
Sprint Duration = 2 weeks
Accessibility – color blind → 4 story points
Increase security → 21 story points
Add AI chatbot → 5 story points
The risk register mentions a reduction of 1 story point per sprint from sprints 4 through 6 due to the holiday schedule.
If we assume the team's normal velocity is 10 story points per sprint (hypothetically), it would drop to 9 story points per sprint for sprints 4-6.
Normal sprint velocity: 5 story points per sprint
Reduced velocity for sprints 4-6: 4 story points per sprint
First 3 sprints: 5 points per sprint → 5 × 3 = 15 story points completed
Sprints 4-6: 4 points per sprint → 4 × 3 = 12 story points completed
Remaining story points after sprint 6: 72 - (15 + 12) = 45 story points
Remaining sprints needed at normal velocity (5 story points per sprint): 45 ÷ 5 = 9 sprints
Sprints 1-6: Already planned.
Additional 9 sprints needed.
