submittal

Document handed over

Submittal is a formal word for something submitted—a document, proposal, or package of materials sent for review or approval.

The term appears most often in construction and engineering contexts, where a submittal is documentation a contractor provides to verify materials or methods meet specifications: The architect rejected the submittal for the exterior cladding.

Outside technical fields, submission is more common.
