The project sponsor wants to know when an in-flight adaptive project will be done. Which of the following metrics will help the team to predict how much longer the project will take?

Risk burnup and control charts track risk exposure trends and process stability respectively, not the pace of work delivery needed to forecast project completion.

Customer satisfaction index and workload measure quality perception and capacity usage, not the delivery throughput metrics required to predict how long the project will take.

Average burndown shows remaining work decreasing over time but does not include cycle time, which is essential for predicting the speed at which individual backlog items will be completed.

Average velocity measures how much work a team completes per iteration, enabling a forecast of how many iterations remain to finish the backlog. Cycle time measures the average elapsed time from when a work item is started to when it is done, providing insight into the pace of delivery and helping predict remaining project duration.
