The OP has the right idea. Business planning & sustainability is a big part of running a First team. Ask any Chairmans winner. You don't get there without a sustained effort.

Anyway look under the mentor resources in the FRC section of First web site. When at a competition go around & talk to the multi year teams. Especially EI & Chairman winners. Part of how they got there is being helpful.

Our Business plan is here

As primarily a robot mentor I am really happy for & proud of our business & outreach teams. We would not be where we are without them. Of they wouldn't have a robot without us.
