Explanation

Cisco Smart Services are organized around three phases of the network lifecycle: Plan (B), Build (D), and Manage (E). These categories reflect the end-to-end journey of a network solution - from strategic planning and design, through implementation, to ongoing management and optimization.

Why the distractors are wrong:

Operate (A) is a phase in Cisco's broader PDIOO lifecycle (Plan, Design, Implement, Operate, Optimize), but it is not one of the three Smart Services categories.
Deploy (C) describes an action within the Build phase but is not a standalone Smart Services category.
Measure (F) is not an official Smart Services category; measurement activities fall under Manage.

Memory tip: Think "PBM" - Please Build/Manage - or picture the lifecycle as Plan it → Build it → Manage it. These three verbs cover before, during, and after a network deployment, which is exactly how Cisco structures its Smart Services portfolio.
