I have done some similer kind of thing. Like for GUI I have used Tkinter, 
for report generation and other business logic I have created scripts 
seperately which I import in the gui and web module and for web interface I 
have used Python CGI. and it works fine.

I can not say anything about PHP coz I don't know much about it and also I 
don't know how will you use python modules from PHP, But as I used CGI it is 
easy to simply import the modules created and use them in your CGI scripts.
