Cancel the gig. You can not fix prior mismanagement with technical means and definitely not by bringing in an outsider who probably also does not speak the local language. In addition you will be limited in who you can hire locally if this is the first time you are moving to a particular country. You will not have connections that are necessary for identifying and retaining high quality staff, should it be found that there has been some sort of acrimonious interactions between the CEO and his/her local team which has impacted morale, which essentially requires you to replace the entire team in order to fix. So in your situation, you might be forced to try to fix the local team which is a coin-tosser (50/50 chance of this working out), and entirely not acceptable if an artificial deadline has been established. Cancel the gig. Save the money you would otherwise have spent, and go on a vacation in the same country if you must.
