once the data is in a database, how would you still need Alcatel knowledge 
then?

The question sounds like:

How can I invoke an action based on data stored in a XXX database?

XXX is very vital to know, and the anwser could be a database trigger (or 
stored procedure).

But you could also write a small frontend over your table, filter the data, 
and then invoke the action on all records you selected in that application.

And yes, there is a drupal module for that.

http://drupal.org/project/data to manage external tables
http://drupal.org/project/views_bulk_operations to do actions against selected 
records.

(if you get the 2 working together, let us know. it might not be 
superstraightforward)
