How to unlock the Subterranean Research achievement in Control - Definitive Guide
I would recommend playing through the story before focusing on collectibles as you will pick up a lot of them through natural gameplay. The list of collectibles that are required for the achievement are;

I was at 98% after completing the DLC. When I watched that youtube clip I knew I had missed the "Talented Janitor" collectible. So I went there and got it and the achievement popped no problem. Thanks for the guide! =)

If this Trophy does not pop on your last collectible, back up your save file and then restart "Endgame" from the mission select screen. Play it for a little bit and the Trophy
should pop when you grab a collectible.

*BUGGY*
There are over 40 collectibles in the DLC and I have complied a list in the video on the ones you need to pick up but not the ones you'd receive automatically by defeating new enemies, entering a new area or through cutscenes which you'll get once you'd beating the story-related DLC. If you are just missing a couple, check the video description for time-stamped collectibles. Here is also a CHECKLIST to follow if you can't figure out which one you're missing.

If for some reason the trophy didn't pop after finding all of the collectibles and finishing the story DLC, do the following: Backup your save to either a USB Drive or the PS Plus Save Fie Cloud, then restart the game, select the level "ENDGAME" and replay The Foundation DLC (because doing it this way, you will keep your already found collectibles). Continue as normal until you hit Crossroads (or sooner), because the game will give you some collectibles automatically, making the trophy pop.

If you have collected ALL the items (43 pieces) and still haven’t received the achievement, follow these three steps:
1. Transfer your Control saves to USB or the cloud (for PS Plus subscribers). This can be done in the PS Plus menu > Manage subscription > Cloud storage.
2. Start the game and go to the "Select Mission" section, where select "Final". The game will offer to overwrite saves, agree.
3. Start the Foundation mission as if you have never played The Foundation before. As soon as you get to the Foundation location, pick up the first collectible item - it will be a tape with Ash's recording "Journal 1. Discovery".
Congratulations! Achievement received! Now all that remains is to return the saves back to the system and continue playing from where you left off.

Most guides are in English, to make it easier to refer to, you can switch the language to English in the main menu.

To make it easier to collect the remaining items and not have to run through all the locations, translate the game into English, follow the video in theMiyazakiSoul hint, copy the list of all collectibles from the description under the video and cross out those that you have already collected during the game, you will collect the rest many times faster, than running around the entire video and looking for everything.

The trophy will not drop until you have visited all the locations and completed all the main additional missions!
