You are trying to define guidelines for a design that doesn’t exist yet.
It will be easier to have it the other way around and the results will
be better. It’s like writing a bus timetable without knowing the
stations. You would have to adjust stations to your routes later. My
recommendation in the mail for „Re: [ux] Notes from March 24th meeting“
(that unfortunately hides in the archive as a html attachment) was

First phase: Defining design elements and rules
Second phase: Document it as a style guide practicable for the defined
target group
Third phase: Design templates

So my idea is to define it before the style guide brief or let the
briefed designer do the job and call it corporate design brief. Does
that make sense to you? Hope I can meet you in the chat next week!

Philip
