Transportation activity is essential for much of the economy, since most economic activities depend on the movement of goods and people. Currently Logistics has been hampered by changes in external and internal environments, such as: delivery time, tracking and fleet management, customer opinion, supplier dependency, and the economic crisis. Considering the problems reported, as well as new market trends, new business models and technologies, Stepbox was developed. A logistics application of goods deliveries that offers services through a sharing economy. One of the proposals of Stepbox is to serve as a channel of communication between the transport service applicants and the companies that provide the transport service. In order to provide innovation in this area, Stepbox offers several value propositions for both the freight forwarder and the companies that provide this type of service. For example: sharing economy, smart routes, merchandise tracking, delivery value suggestion, check-in, qualification of the product collection and delivery process (gamification), geo opportunity.
