document upload + convert to pdf + make searchable utility

[dingleberry]

Hey All,
I work in a business where we have 50 remote locations. I am seeking a pre-made utility that allows my staff to produce "Standard Operating Procedures" in Word and then to be able to go to a page, upload them, have them ripped into a pdf, the pdf then stored publicly and keywords added to a database so that users could search for things like "how to make a bale" and the link to the correct SOP, in pdf form, would be returned. Revision control (changing from Rev A to Rev B) and an index that would show links to all SOP's by default is ideal. I can probably make this but I don't want to recreate the wheel if there is an existing utility that the community could recommend and vouch for. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Is it going to be Open Source?
