Nagios for client management?

Hello,
  Nagios seems to be a good client monitor system.  I was wondering if 
anyone also uses it as a client management system?  By management,  I 
mean running update scripts and other software on various Linux 
clients.  For instance, I'd like to be able to tell clients to update a 
perl module with cpan or yum update some_rpm_package or download, untar, 
compile, install some in house software.   I could write a client script 
to poll a server every so often asking what todo, but would rather not 
reinvent the wheel if something like this exists in Nagios/plugin or 
other software. 

Thanks,
