Client already failed. Without a central policy manager, they have no
hope at all of locking out a future ex-employee.
First thing to do is convince them to get that issue resolved.
Other than that, even without a central username, password, you could
run nessus, and metasploit on it and you WILL come up with lots of
reasons to move toward central policy management.
Hydra with smb support or smbbf could check each local machine for weak
passwords.
You might also specify that you will conduct individual scans on several
'sample' systems, locally, on the machine. Run Microsoft security
baseline analyzer.
