I'm required to upgrade IE9 to IE11 to 1000+ Win7 clients. The business do not want to enable Update Rollups which rules out using the SUP and anyway, they would like IE11 installed as part of the OSD. I am going through my experience to help other people and whether there's anything people can add.
I tried creating a new IE msi using IEAK and including all the prerequisites, optional updates and hotfix (KB2898202) using the link below:
- http://prajwaldesai.com/deploy-internet-explorer-11-using-sccm-2012-r2
This fails due to an internet connection being needed to download the updates even though they have been included in the package. C:\windows\IE11_main.log shows this with the message 'error downloading prerequisite file'. The Link below :

The link above also suggests a script to run which I have tried manually with success. Tomorrow I will try using that method through SCCM and update this post tomorrow. Shame that the IEAK doesn't let you package everything up together though.
