It's very difficult to efficiently review a project when submittals come in piecemeal. Inevitably, things get missed and resubmittals of such partial submittals only complicate matters. Though there are always exceptions, we require complete (re)submittals with shop drawings complying with NFPA working plans requirements, quality annotated cutsheets clearly indicating any selected/elected options, along with the hydraulic calculations in accordance with NFPA hydraulic calculation procedures. Incomplete submittals are rejected without review. We also require each review comment of a submittal to be addressed in a returned written response letter accompanying the resubmittal.
We've had success when this is stated up front in bid documents and plan review generally goes much quicker and with less headache. Ryan L.

I was told this is how they've been doing it for decades. Just wanted to see what the industry consensus was.

I prefer the entire package. However, I have worked with General Contractors that demand equipment data sheets with 2 weeks of contract award. Engineers - a suggestion: put the requirement in your specification to require a complete package if that is what you want.
