What is a Technical Report?

A technical report is a document that describes the process or results of technical or scientific research for internal use, or to be submitted to project funding agencies. The research can be conducted and reports produced by government agencies, commercial companies, non-profit organizations, or educational institutions. Technical reports are typically not peer-reviewed and can be considered as grey literature.
