Engineers repeatedly contract for another outing (9)

I believe the answer is:

rerelease

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'another outing' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.

'engineers repeatedly contract' is the wordplay.
'engineers' becomes 're' (Royal Engineers).
'repeatedly' indicates the doubling of some letters.
'contract' becomes 'lease' (lease is a kind of contract).
're' doubled is 'rere'.
'rere'+'lease'='RERELEASE'

'for' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?
