I use Group Policy Preferences to copy psshutdown to the Windows folder under Computer Configuration - Preferences - Windows Setting - Files, and then also create a scheduled task Under Computer Configuration - Preferences - Control Panel Settings - Scheduled Tasks that runs psshutdown with the following arguments:
