The single most important thing is to hire the right person for leading (technical) this project. Even a tiny (<=3) (but well-paid) team can deliver you results beyond your expectations. There're interesting things to build in all industry; logistics is not an exception. I've seen stuff like this before and the most common reason for failure is the "technical" person focusing on entrenching their position instead of focusing on delivery.
