tender


Explanation:
Estoy de acuerdo en que es contract también, pero al haber ya un contrato=contract, debería utilizarse tender, en general.Luego ya, dependiendo del tipo de contrata, si es más específica:

contrata de arriendo: lease
contrata de fletamento:charterparty
contrata a la gruesa: bottomry bond
construcción por contrata: tender

Explanation:
Un contrato es un hecho jurídico, esté o no plasmado por escrito.
En este caso el hecho jurídico solo se perfeccionará mediante la firma del documento.
Aunque la palabra "agreement" significa también "acuerdo" (sea escrito o no escrito), puede utilizarse aquí —para no repetir "contrato"— para designar el documento.

contrata (DRAE)
1. f. Instrumento, escritura o simple obligación firmada con que las partes aseguran los contratos que han hecho.
...

agreement (Webster's)
...
4. a contract or other document delineating
such an arrangement.
