SSBBT has contingency plans on breaking a few sticking points, you can exhaust those.
As for what program to move onto, since your worried about power, it will depend on your exercise selection. Every intermediate program has an explosive variation, I'd say go for the Nebraska Model on page 156 of PP. It has days dedicated to olympic movements while still training strength.
