then

Explanation:

The logical sequence is that after discussing the manual's contents and organization with the supervisor, one begins to draft the manual. "After" indicates a time - order relationship. "Then" is more of a general sequential marker without the time - specific nature here. "Before" would reverse the logical order. "As" implies simultaneity which is not appropriate.
