Any additional information about this request that you would like to include?

Who does this project help? What happens if this project is not completed?

We should be using newer technology that expands our capabilities and also helps us move closer to cloud based goals.

Description

We want to see if we can move closer to MECM/Cloud Endpoint for pushing upgrades to Windows 10 devices as well as move away from WSUS.

We have a requirement to upgrade to Windows 10 22H2. Push comes to shove, we can push this via WSUS. But as we move towards cloud based technologies, I would like to see this come to fruition.

I will be including David A and Jeff N.
