There is a thing called "syslog collector" or "syslog server" which collects logging data from all the applications in the enterprise infrastructure. The data may be later forwarded to services like Zabbix, Splunk, Graylog and others alike for analysis. The analysis may be performed, for example, to notify system administrators of GPO application failures. It also allows to gather all the necessary information without interacting with users or their machines asking to provide additional information.

The starting point I believe is setting up simple syslog server daemon like syslog-ng or rsyslog. From gpupdate codebase point of view it is needed to implement configuration file option to specify host and port for logging and add Python logger for syslog which must be activated on option presence.
