My .02 would lean towards option b.
The advantage of Brio Query is that with little programming effort, we can
create a nice report. I would let Brio bring up a dialog box that the
consultant can type in the logid.
The advantage of the Web is that we can skip the deployment issues around
Brio. Also, consultants probably will have a web browser up and running.
Thus, I would just add any missing fields.
