I'm working on writing a document called a Technical System Design (part of our co-opted lifecycle management) that is going to detail our plans to refactor some applications to fit into our new platform. This document will then advise a small team of developer leads who will then work with their own teams to build up our new system.
To be as thorough as I can (because I can't be everywhere for everybody), I'm relying on Steve McConnell's Software Project Survival Guide.
BTW: Agile methodology is not an option, and I'm not convinced it would be correct to apply it to this project.
The SPSG is perfect for me. This will be my first real lead position, and I'm not just the lead developer – I'm the lead over other leads. This is not counting the role I've had advising and assisting the rest of the team on architecture in which my subsystems will be just a part.
