Community tool – Win32App Migration Tool

The tool is community-driven and was created by Ben – a Microsoft MVP – and is designed to migrate your existing SCCM/MECM Configuration Manager application to a deployment type that is supported within Microsoft Endpoint Manager – Intune as an application delivery package.

The tool does everything automatically, so instead of manually checking application and deployment types, the tool does it in a bulk manner for you and, by way of output, it creates the .intunewin file for you.

You can download the tool for free here. As mentioned previously, it is community-driven, meaning it's not officially supported by Microsoft support: https://github.com/byteben/Win32App-Migration-Tool.

This is great work by ByteBen – an Enterprise Mobility MVP. The tool runs in PowerShell with verbose logging onscreen:
