Answer
Dear A----organizing an expedition takes prior expedition experience----you need someone who had done it before to provide direct leadership.
A few of the main consideration:
1. matching the teams' talent to the climb
2. permits
3. equipment planning
4. rescue team
For more on climbing safety, please see, my book, "Ultrasafe, A Guide to Safer Rock Climbing," available at Amazon.com.
Good Luck
