Government, enterprise and PMO teams spend an extraordinary amount of time creating and maintaining Word documents. From status reports, briefing packs and business cases to steering committee papers, templates and more. The challenge? These documents are usually created manually, copied from multiple sources, and quickly become outdated.
Altus for Microsoft Word solves this by synchronising live Altus project and portfolio data directly into Word documents to ensure every report is accurate, consistent, and always up to date.
Key Capabilities
Live data synchronisation
Altus for Word synchronises project, program and portfolio data directly from Altus into Microsoft Word documents, ensuring a single source of truth across reports, briefs, and templates.
Reduce manual administration
Eliminate copy‑paste reporting. When Altus data changes, linked content in Word can be refreshed—cutting hours of manual effort from reporting cycles.
Standardised document templates
Maintain consistent formats, language and structure across all project documentation by embedding Altus fields into approved Word templates—supporting governance, assurance and audit requirements.
Version history and document integrity
Documents remain standard Word files with full version history, while drawing from live Altus data—ensuring traceability without introducing proprietary formats.
Works inside Microsoft 365
Altus for Word is a Microsoft‑native add‑in that runs securely inside your Microsoft 365 tenant, aligned with your organisation’s security, identity and compliance policies.
Altus for Word dramatically reduces the reporting burden faced by PMs, PMOs and governance teams. Instead of rebuilding documents every reporting cycle, teams can focus on decision‑making and delivery.
By integrating Word with Altus:
- Reporting becomes faster and more reliable
- Executive briefs stay aligned to real‑time data
- Governance templates remain consistent
- Audit and assurance confidence improves
- Teams keep working in familiar tools
For organisations with heavy reporting obligations—especially government and regulated industries—Altus for Word is a powerful way to reduce effort while improving accuracy and trust.
