Since it appears you are doing this after the fact, your first task is to find out whether any of these things actually took place in anything resembling a reasonably organized manner. If it turns out that all they did was sit around a table with beer and pizza talking about the things that were actually in that playbook (epics/user stories/features or bugs/issues), you need to find out how the product actually happened. Then you have to decide whether what you're going to create is an accurate depiction of the actual process or an idealized version of how it should have happened (IOW, science fiction), and how their next project should happen.

But before any of this can happen, you have to connect with the stakeholders. This usually requires someone very high up in the food chain issuing a statement that this is a high priority, along with a directive that their cooperation is mandatory.

things I expect to see in an SDLC (planning, requirements gathering,
development, quality assurance)
