About ChangeRoute

What ChangeRoute does

ChangeRoute is a cloud-based engineering change management tool designed specifically for UK SME manufacturers. It provides a structured ECR to ECO workflow with digital signatures, impact assessment routing, and ISO 9001-compliant audit evidence packs.

Who it's for

Quality managers and engineering leads at UK manufacturing SMEs with 5 to 50 employees. Specifically, ISO 9001-certified firms that need to document engineering changes for audit compliance but cannot justify £7,000 or more per year for enterprise PLM software.

Why it exists

ISO 9001:2015 clauses 8.3.6 and 8.5.6 require documented evidence of change reviews, impact assessments, approvals, and actions taken. Most UK SME manufacturers manage this with Word templates, Excel trackers, and paper routing slips. Enterprise PLM tools cost £7,000 to £100,000 per year. The cheapest credible alternative is US-based, self-hosted, and approximately $110 per month.

Nothing exists under £50 per month that provides a proper ECR to ECO workflow with ISO audit trail. ChangeRoute fills that gap.
