Hey ewMacUser,
Dec 02, 2013 A Microsoft Lync password entry is also created in the user’s login keychain if one does not already exist. Once the Lync application is quit, the OCKeyContainerusername@company.com keychain and application password entry persist and are not automatically deleted. May 06, 2016 To get the login keychain up to date with the new password you are using for your OS X account, go to the Mac’s Applications folder, then to the Utilities folder within and open the Keychain.

I am getting pop-ups stating 'Microsoft Word wants to use your confidential information stored in Microsoft Identity xxxxxx in you keychain.'
I see you are getting repeated requests for access to keychaindata when launching apps from Microsoft Office 365. Is that right?
It is not clear from your post whether you have tried allowing the use of this data. If you click the 'Allow' button, does anything change? If not, I would first suggest you try repairing your keychain using Keychain First Aid. See this article - Keychain Access: If you have a problem with keychains

If your issue persists, take a look at this thread in Microsofts forums for Mac users - Microsoft Office 2016 programs asking to use confidential information stored in my keychain | Office 365 for Mac | Microsoft Office 365 Community. The answer by Mills Fan MSFT Support seems relevant to your issue.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
