Risk statement. Between public holidays and booked annual leave, November and December give roughly 6.5 usable delivery weeks rather than the 9 the plan assumes. This is close to certain; only the size of the gap is uncertain.
Trigger / early warning. Already active. Leave calendar confirms the shortfall.
Consequence if realised. About two and a half weeks of capacity disappears from the back end of the plan, exactly where the buffer normally sits.
Current response. Mitigate. Re-plan around actual capacity rather than nominal weeks, and pull the two highest-risk work items earlier.
