This should be a fairly straightforward task. If the computers are both on the same domain, there aren't any special certificate requirements. If the computers are not on the same domain, a self-signed certificate needs to be generated and imported into the client computer in order to facilitate the https connection.
I've been using PowerShell intensely for a few years, we use PS remoting to connect to various other servers, such as the domain controllers and Exchange server.
We would need to arrange some sort of method of remote access on the client and host machines to facilitate this, I manage a Bomgar remote support appliance instance that could cover this off securely.
If account management is a sore point in your organization, I have developed some solid account management scripts and automations in PowerShell with forms. The tools are developed and would require little customization, new users created in just over a minute with automatic username, email, select the position the user holds in the organization from AD security groups, security group membership, distribution groups, automatic ACLs on user-specific directories, Exchange mailbox creation, automatic password generation. Reset account tool, disable account tool.
