TL;DR
If your papers are urgent, regular CDEK delivery may take around 2 weeks. The fastest options people look for in Tbilisi are express courier shipping, sending documents with a traveler on a Moscow–Tbilisi route, and preparing notarized paperwork in Tbilisi before dispatch.
For urgent delivery, people usually look for a courier company where they can walk in the next day with a document envelope and arrange immediate shipment to Moscow. The need here is specifically for a small document envelope, not a parcel.
If courier delivery is too slow, travelers consider sending the papers with someone flying between Moscow and Tbilisi. This is mainly used for a few paper documents when timing is critical.
One practical option is to first arrange a court power of attorney with a notary in Tbilisi and only then send the original to Russia. This matters when the document must be notarized before shipping.
The discussion suggests that CDEK is not suitable for urgent document delivery: the transit time mentioned was about 2 weeks, which is too slow if the traveler is flying out in less than 1.5 weeks.
