My pilot of 5 MacBooks went well except 1 small hiccup. A lot of the work our users are doing requires occasionally elevation to admin. The previous tech claimed the were using Enterprise Privileges. In reality they were just creating a local admin profile.
I'm not sure about elevate themselves, but I've heard of folks having success with macOSLAPS: https://github.com/joshua-d-miller/macOSLAPS
NOTE: You will need a custom profile to allow /usr/bin/osascript to have access Apple system events, or the user will have to approve the pop-up. Use PPPC Utility to create it. (https://github.com/jamf/PPPC-Utility)
