What has to be true for this business to work?
The most useful venture plan identifies the small number of assumptions whose failure would make the opportunity economically or strategically unattractive.
Fulfillment performance depends on the entire flow from promise to delivery
Orders, inventory, warehousing, transport and service must work as one system if customers are to receive reliable outcomes.
Strategic challenges

POV
Technology risk is business risk once the enterprise cannot operate without it
Digital dependency should be governed by business consequence, not left within technical classifications alone.
