I used to be a science teacher. My favourite start of year activity was to get students to make paper boxes to boil water in. You can read more about this here, here and here. You would think that it would be hopeless to put a paper container of water onto a tripod over a bunsen burner but it works.
"Fitness for purpose" fits here - you would not expect paper to be a good material to put onto a fire unless you expect it to burn.
In your project, you need to explain how your conceptual design would be fit for the purpose that you are working on. It means: "Will it do the job it was designed to do according to the requirements of the brief?"
