A route card that follows a job through its process steps - pre-start checks that drawings are correct and material released, in-process checks with the frequency and tolerances required, and final checks and inspection. It keeps a job moving under control, one stage at a time.
A quality management system aligned with ISO 9001 (clause 8.5) expects production to be carried out under controlled conditions with checks at appropriate stages. A route card is the practical way to build those checks into the flow of the job.
Any manufacturer or fabricator that needs a job to pass through defined process steps with checks at each one. It suits businesses working to ISO 9001, and to BS EN 1090 where in-process inspection matters.
For the wider job detail around the routing - customer, drawings, weld procedures and work log - the F-Q48 Fabrication Job Card sits alongside the route card.
