Best of everything ...
Sounds like, not to follow a standard way of Waterfall project management, when you cannot move out the delivery date anymore, you cut down the scope instead. Might be better in an Agile approach, as you do not have a detailed plan, but a MVP (minimum viable product) that has been agreed with the main customers? And increase is not just additional resources, it could also be a smarter way of doing things (e.g. simplification, cross-functional teams, DevOps, etc.).

I would like people to recognize in looking at my story that the person who has the most to do with what happens to you is you. It's not the environment, it's not the other people who were there trying to help you or trying to stop you. It's what you decide to do and how much effort you put behind it. -- Ben Carson, American - Scientist Born: September 18, 1951, https://www.thefamouspeople.com/profiles/ben-carson-5393.php
