Will, What exactly IS the application? At first glance it sounds like it may be a parts catalog? In which case the answer may simply be to TOTALLY remove the database from any deployment scenario, and instead simply have static pages generated from your MV database
You have also used the term "offline", so assume some form of web access doesn't fit the requirement.
