How can I make chkdsk run every time the computer is started?

I work for a State agency and we have a central help desk with 3 memebrs.
We support over 3500 computers across the state and have been receiving many
invalid boot disk error messages recently. When we run chkdsk on the drives,
they are cleared and then boot. Just trying to prevent some calls and road
trips.
