If you are looking to do quick and dirty web publishing, Word does have the
ability to "convert to HTML". Now the resulting code would make a web
designer cringe, but it does work, and for most simple documents isn't that
bad.
If you want to handle putting up the various pages, you can have them email
the word documents and then cut and paste into a template... or if you are a
little more ambitious, set up a database with the various departments and
topics, and then create a form where they can cut and paste their info along
with "cataloguing" type information.
It depends on how many people are involved, how much information is
involved, and how fast the info needs to go up.
I would start by talking to each group that has data and finding out as much
as you can about their needs and then designing the best solution to fit
your organization.
