Zameka,

before planning, you should assess the situation within a few days. Then, come up with a problem statement and several options, one of which could be stopping the project.
The person who called you in to recover the project should decide.

The problem statement should rely on statements by stakeholders obtained in 1:1 sessions, no longer than 1 hour, and less on documentation (which might not reflect the situation).

1. interview the sponsor who called you in
2. obtain the project org chart and interview all people on it
3. list issues they mention; there will be contradictions and emotions
4. comprehend their understanding of the project's purpose


In my experience, project recoveries may blow up the budget by a factor 4 and prolong the duration by a factor 2. So don't rush the plan, which also is a commitment you make.
