Challenge Storstockholms Lokaltrafik AB (SL, or Greater Stockholm Local Transit Company) is a city-owned public transit company, providing all land transportation services in Stockholm county. Every day, SL serves over 2.8 million passengers, traveling on bus, metro, tram and suburban rail lines. As part of their vision of developing a “sustainable and attractive transport system that would contribute to making Stockholm Europe’s most attractive metropolitan region”, SL was seeking a technological partner to create a new portable ticketing device for conductors. Main Goals: Replace the previously used SK-20 ticketing device and application with a newer Android Famoco model — offering more convenient dimensions, a bigger screen and up-to-date UI. Preserve functionality from the earlier app, plus incorporate extra integrations of third-party products into the handheld conductor device.
