Our infrastructure was clicked together in the AWS console over two years and only one person knows where everything is. We want it in Terraform, a deployment pipeline that runs tests and can roll back, and environments that actually match each other. We are aware this is partly an archaeology job. Part of the deliverable is a written account of what exists, including the things that turn out to be running for no reason. Production handles money, so we need a migration plan that does not involve a big-bang cutover.
