Update Logos without local admin on macOS

Is it possible to install Logos 9 on macOS for users so they don't need a local admin later? We have several users that have Logos 9 and we deploy it via mobile device management. It installs to their own Applications folder (not the root Applications) without any issues. What happens then is at some point or another it will prompt them for a local administrator password before they can install new resources. Is there a way to install it that I'm missing, or is this something we can't avoid?

    Logos isn’t designed to be administered by an IT department. You can call FL directly, but I have not heard of them implementing a network installation option.

    Welcome [:D]

    After administrator copies Logos application bundle into user's Application folder, suggest changing ownership (chown -R) of Logos application bundle to match user's Application folder ownership (to avoid future need of local administrator password).
