Force BitLocker Recovery on start up

As part of adding security and protect the data on a laptop for a remote exit employee, we would like to force the device to boot with the bitlocker recovery key.

The below powershell script works when run locally on the laptop through PowerShell IDE and run as Admin:

$hostname = hostname

manage-bde -forcerecovery C: -computername $hostname

The issue is when we try to push the same code with Automox, it bypasses the recovery key and TPM pin and boots to the login screen instead of asking for the bitlocker recovery key

Below is the code on Automox:
 

Evaluation Code:
Exit 1

************************
Remediation Code:

$hostname = hostname

manage-bde -forcerecovery C: -computername $hostname
Exit 0

************************

I think that it’s an issue with elevating user privillages since the local code is run on PowerShell as Admin and Automox is running the code with the current users rights which are Normal User, but again, I could be wrong.

Your help is appreciated.
