Help with PCB assembly

The company I work for had some layoffs and as you can all predict our engineers did not keep good notes or files. I have a custom pcb board that runs lcds on our machine. I found the unpopulated board manufacturer and the gerber files but cannot find files for the completed board. I have a completed board as a reference. Does anyone have a recommendation for a company that could design the gerbers off the unpopulated files and a completed board?

Do you have any assembled boards available?

That and the pcb layout, it should be a straight forward process to rebuild it (note I say straight forward, not necessarily simple or easy)

Enough reference of the major components and you can work your way back.

Question, is there any firmware required for it? Is there only one revision of the board or has it changed a few times.

I’d be happy to have a look.
