Depending on what access you have on the server you can use a program like psexec or using WMI to launch the file remotely.

A sample psexec command would be

psexec \\computername -u remoteusername filepath(on remote computer) arguments

Psexec can copy the file beforehand if requested and can run against a list of computers instead (replacing \\computername with @computer-list.txt). With WMI you need to connect to the Win32_Process class and Create a new object to start it. The second post in this thread could work.

Unfortunately both of these options require multiple firewall rules (like RPC and WMI) to be available from the running workstation. If your company only has RDP access enabled through the firewall, neither of these will probably work.
