We have a group that is looking to adopt a bring your own computer (byoc) program, the client obviously has concerns on how they could enforce their minimum requirements (i.e. AV/Firewall protection, full patched system, OS, Memory/CPU if possible, etc.).  Their co-workers would connect over an SSL VPN and it sounds like an Endpoint Analysis solution is what they need.

Could anyone offer any suggestions on a solution?

Also, if an employee attempts to connect and does not meet the minimum requirements the client would like to return prompt on why the system is restricted from connecting.

It does not sound much different than work at home (allowing employees
to use their personal machines).

Have them VPN into a Terminal Server from their cube. For the most
part, you don't have to worry about their configuration since their
machine is a dumb terminal.
