Business Plan for a Trading Account

So I have attempted to pitch a VAR account to trade futures at my company-NYMEX energy futures to be specific. In turn, I have been asked by upper management to compose a Business Plan for the actual trading account, not for a specific trade. Has anyone ever heard of such a thing, and if so does anyone have an template they constructed for a similar situation? At somewhat of a loss on what should the paper should entail when no specific trades are outlined. Thanks. Feel free to PM/message if so
