Need to create something like a PDF portfolio but will always open up newest rev of individual pdfs

Question

Hello, I work at an engineering company that stores our individual CAD drawings as PDF's.  I am looking for a way to create a file to represent an assembly that would appear like a merged or portfolio PDF of all of the individual PDF drawings into one master file.  However, that master file would need to always pull in the latest revision of all individual PDF's.  In essence, I want to create a linked "portfolio" type document but for revision control purposes I don't want to ever risk using out-of-date drawings.  I would appreciate any suggestions or instructions.  Thank you.

You can create a "master" file with links to the other files, and then overwrite those files each time with the new version. Of course, each user will have to be able to access those files, either online (if that's where they are located) or on a network folder, for example.
