I should really put some time into writing this up, but my first script that went corporate-wide was an NTP catch up script. Now that I think about it, I really don't know why an NTP catch up script was needed. Basically VMWare time was not reliable. Windows will by default not catch up unless you get to around 5 minutes off. My script checked every day to see what the drift was and correct it if it was more than 5 seconds of drift. The underlying reason for concern was logging - we wanted to make sure that our log times were comparable.
