Publishing Project without Visual Studio

Question

Question 1:

We need to know whether there is a way of publishing project via clickonce without Visual Studio or rather without buying another licence of Visual Studio?

Why I'm asking this is, our IT audit requirement is pushing someone else; designated except for the Developer to publish the project.

Currently we have a single licensed Visual Studio 2012 Professional version for developer only. Is there anyway for a person who is not much tech savvy to publish without using Visual Studio?

We found that tool such Mage and MageUI are there, but requires far bit of a knowledge to do so.

Thanks & Regards,
