French term or phrase: contrat de réalisation
In a document of specifications of a new financial accounting system, a reference to the contract that gave rise to the realisation of project.

"Realization contract" and "production Contract" both sound terrible, as does "Concluding contract". Is there better English for this? "Final contract"? Or should I leave it in French, since it may be viewed as the title of a document?

Production contract


Explanation:
Production contract seems to be the most commonly used term - a google search brings up 1.25 million hits!!!

You could also possibly use Operating Contract or Operating Agreement, although this would be less specific about the fixed duration of the project involved.

Project Execution Contract


Explanation:
There are several translations for "Réalisation" to choose from, but it seems to me "execution" would best express what is done to a project.
