effectuation
Bringing about results
Effectuation is the act of bringing something into effect or making it happen.
The word appears in legal and business contexts where execution or implementation carries formal weight: the effectuation of the merger required regulatory approval.
It's a nominal form of effectuate, itself a slightly formal alternative to effect as a verb.
