I do not love passive voice either, but the nature of this document is:
We have collected feedback from stakeholders in the form of interviews, and consolidated that feedback in this document.
If there is ever a place for passive voice, it is a document whose purpose is to consolidate the opinions of multiple people while explicitly not implying definite consensus among those people.
In a document that consolidates opinions of multiple people I think it’s useful to be specific about how many people propose an idea. Instead of “It was recommended” you could say “One person recommended” or whatever is the most appropriate. That would make it much more clear to the reader how much the recommendation is backed.
