local administrator access for DBA's - is this required?

Hi
I need to manage a SQL cluster, monitor database and O.S performance and
apply database patches. Do I require local admin rights for this? If not
what is the workaround please?
Problem is, my organisation is very reluctant to grant local admin rights.
Is there a Microsoft article on this type of issue (I couldn't find one).
Thanks!

Use the SQL server account if you need local admin privilege on server.
