My company has it's own drawing formats but from the home tab when i hit "part", "Drawing", "assembly", or "presentation" it automatically pulls the inventor original formats (prefer that we don't delete the original files)

Name the company versions as "Standard"

I agree with @BDCollett - All the shortcuts (like from the Home tab, the Quick Access menu - and then in all the functions like derive, make components etc) all look for "Standard.ipt" or "Standard.iam" or "Standard.idw/dwg". 

 

If you use your own name, you either break the shortcut or create yourself more clicking.  If you don't want to overwrite the originals, copy them somewhere safe or add a prefix to the file names, then create your own, calling them "Standard".
