ZPM does not include Vendor Firmware/Driver Patches.
However, most major OEMS (Dell/HP/Lenovo) have tools they provide that allow for updating the drivers/firmware and these tools can be installed/called/utilized by ZENworks to update those machines.
Here is a Reddit Thread that has some good tips.

Each vendor has their own tools that work a little differently but the idea is the same.
Once you set it up....it will just sit and chug along on its own.
