See previous posts in this thread. In general, you are supposed to start from scratch, unless you are legitimately attempting to publish something other teams will find useful.

That said, attempting to build a modest level of flexibility/generality into your code will probably (but not necessarily) help your team satisfy the requirements they impose on their producton processes and on the robots they produce; and writing some advice/examples along those lines into your team's training materials for future programmers, is probably a good idea.
