For handling in place workstations, use the vendor provided installer as either an Application or a Package/Program.

There's nothing built into ConfigMgr to perform driver installation or updates on existing managed systems. Thus, you need to do what Nash suggested or alternatively you could use dpinst, pnputil, or devcon: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/181.how-to-manage-device-drivers-with-command-line.aspx
