Document-itis

I'm currently on a project where it seems every time I turn around a new document has been created for a different way to view the same data. I'm not sure how to stem the tied of this swelling mountain of documents. Part of the issue is that the project is very far behind and management is desperately trying to bring in the hours yet still complete the work requested. So the thought of cleaning up the documentation and perhaps generating other views of the data gets shelved because we don't have enough time...even though we end up looking at data that is incorrect and making decisions off it because we didn't keep documents synchronized.
