or behind schedule

Moody's warns that big programs, particularly those behind schedule or over budget are vulnerable to quantity reductions, deferrals or in some cases, cancellation.

穆迪公司对大型项目提出警告，特别是那些落后于预定计划或超出预算的项目，在面临数量减少、延期或因某些情况取消等不利因素时是脆弱的。

If you are behind schedule and a test case breaks, you must fix it quickly or it will become a mere sparkle in the history of your development effort.

如果您落后进度了，且测试用例打破了，那么您必须快速处理否则它将成为您开发工作史上仅仅的闪光点。

But if we don't have short-term goals and milestones already plotted along the way, we're not really sure if we're behind or ahead of schedule.

但如果我们没有在路上标出的短期的目标和里程碑，我们不会真正地确定我们是否落后或先于进度。
