Narrative:
The company filed a flight plan that requires RNAV equipment for an aircraft not RNAV equipped. ATC issued clearance as 'cleared as filed.' the clearance was accepted. After reviewing entire route of flight determined routing required RNAV equipment. A direct routing was requested using VOR navaids from center and no RNAV routing was actually used or flown.
