Ours are purchased from a tier one distributor who has a copy of our distribution pack on in - the version of the Windows to use, the key start up software and all the locks in place so we cannot change anything.
Once we connect to the company servers our own applications are downloaded as is MS Office.
Everything is locked down including the browsers, printers, permissions on what we can print etc.
There is no bloatware thank goodness.
