I would use "si" for hardware reporting, and rpm with some options to
see what's installed. If you (or your bosses) want to see this in a web
browser, put it in crontab and output it in a web readable place. If
you admin lots of machines, you could centralize this and view all your
machines at a glance.

"si (System Information Viewer) is a Linux application that displays
information about the local computer from data gathered from the /proc
filesystem, a readable interface to kernel memory. si displays
information related to the CPU, hardware, memory, kernel, filesystems,
network and running processes. Information is presented in a plain-text
dump, colorized-pages, or process-information interface."
