Default Word 2013 just for master index and printing

I'm working on a project where I have created approximately 45-50 short documents to document different procedures in a large department. Each document is 1-5 pages long, with the average only about 2 pages.

I would like to move them all into one large document so that I can have a TOC and index of all of them, but I can't because different individuals will be responsible for updating different sections, which is why I made the individual docs in the first place.

So what I'm thinking of is this: Keeping the individual docs separate so that people can check them out and update them without holding everyone else up. When it's time to reprint the whole collection, pull them into a master doc, update the TOC, and replace the index.

Would that work? Or would it fall prey to the old corruption problems of the master document feature? I'm using Word 2013. Some of them might be using Word 2010 or Office 365.
