In my old consulting days, a lot of work showed up when companies cut corners, laid people off they should not have, and generally made bad management decisions.
They would then show up, hat in hand, asking if things could be quickly patched and fixed.
99% of the time, the answer was that it needed to be rewritten. Often they would be forced to bring back some of the former employees since they had domain expertise, at multiple what they were paid before.
Guessing the same will happen here.
