You've got 3 months...after which point they need to be in testing or you won't be able to convince your team to do it this year.

Oh, and for mounting the rollers, you may want to twist the supports so the tread will actually move over tread-suppporting rollers without tearing something. And for roller axles, just make sure you can get the rollers off when you want to but not when you don't want to.
