Implement the solution

The implementation of the solution is performed using the tasks described in

Table A-6. Note that here we are estimating times to perform the activity a single

time. Remember that the numbers of each item may vary, which will reflect on the

total time for the project. The number of agents that need to be deployed, and

also the amount of workspaces that need to be configured for users, will also

affect the total time for the project.
