13 years years in Managerial designation. Even though i have been into sale and marketing,I am familiar with HR function with MBA and PG Diploma in HR?

I'm in the middle of defining the role, structure, compensational policy and scope of a Business Development department which is in a e-Marketing focused company that delivers services and products of 'Client' and of its own through technology and to the online community. The department would also be allowed to provide external consultancy to other entities without damaging internal opportunities and conflicting with the interest of the company it is within. Resources of this department would be in minority internal and majority contracted part time consultants. Would also be dealing with the internal business process and improving its efficiency as well as internal workflow automation I would think would be fitting. Would like your opinion and experience in this area and please allow me to question and ask for clarification and explore. :-) Thank you.
