Forcing Software Updates

$

We just finished our patch cycle.  Now we had a client update MSIE to version 11.  I see in WindowsUpdate.log that he applied the update to MSIE version 9 during our patch pilot last week. We run software updates using Task Sequences, so our deployments have no deadline.  How can I force that client to apply the MSIE 11 patch without re-running an advert\TS?  I'd prefer to do this via PWS and WMI. 

I see there are various WMI triggers, but I'm not sure how they apply here.

Software update scan is {00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000113}

Software update store is {00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000114}

Software updates deployment is {00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000108}

Do I need to run these in some kind of sequence? If I just trigger a scan (113), I can see the scan take place, but the missing patch is not applied.  I want the client to realize it's missing a patch, download it from SCCM, and then apply it. 

Note I'm not really asking how to apply this one specific patch, I'm trying to understand this process and how I can control it.
