NORTH ANDOVER, Mass. and ATLANTA, Nov. 14, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- TSD (tsdweb.com) and Clutch Technologies (driveclutch.com) today announced a strategic alliance to bring together TSD's fleet management solutions and Clutch's leading automotive subscription and consumer mobility platform.

- Provide "Pick-up and Delivery" capabilities using service loaners coordinated via intelligent workflow and scheduling tools.
- Provision telematics services for service loaners to enable real-time fleet status and recovery of fuel and toll charges.
- Integrate service loaner vehicles into consumer mobility programs including subscription, rental and other offerings.
