    * Build some kind of simple bespoke application using Access (ugh) or web forms, with a SQL Server backend

    * Use some kind of Sharepoint functionality (unfortunately, not currently implemented around here)

    * ?????

    I would look into standing up a simple web form app and an SQL Server database on the backend.

    Access is fine if it is backed up properly and if there is only one version of it. When we use to stand up Access databases we found that users would copy the entire mdb to their workstation and enter data in there, thus causing four of five bootlegged copies to live in parts unknown. We now keep control by using one codebase on an application server and a single database in SQL Server.
