40 -**Scope vs Schedule**: In many classic projects, the scope and the schedule are fixed. However, since the effort and requirements of software projects are almost impossible to accurately determine, it is unreasonable to demand the same fixation of scope and schedule. Therefore, either the scope must be flexible and the schedule fixed, or vice versa. This relationship explains the strategies for dealing with the problem when the generated agile data indicates that there will be a delay:

This relationship explains the strategies for dealing with the problem when the generated agile data indicates that there will be a delay:

42 -* **Schedule Adaption**: It's sometimes possible to postpone the deadline, although this is often not an acceptable option for management.
43 -* **Scope Adaption**: Stakeholders prioritize features with the highest return of investment (RoI) and remove features with lower RoI from the project scope.
42 +* **Schedule Adaption**: It's sometimes possible to push back the deadline to give developers more time to implement all the stories, although this is often not an acceptable option for management.
43 +* **Scope Adaption**: Stakeholders prioritize features with the highest return on investment (ROI) and remove features with lower ROI from the project scope to meet the original deadline.

45 45  **Personnel Increase**: An alternative to the above strategies may be to invest more human resources in the project. Ideally, neither scope nor schedule need be adjusted. Note that this will result in a short-term drop in productivity, as the new team members require the attention of the original team members (explanations, answering questions, joint familiarization with the project, etc.), which distracts them from their actual work. After this period, productivity will rise above the original productivity as desired.
