A balanced scorecard is a tool that would best demonstrate the current state of strategic alignment, because it is a framework that translates the enterprise’s vision and strategy into a set of performance measures that cover four perspectives: financial, customer, internal business process, and learning and growth12. A balanced scorecard can help to assess how well the IT function is supporting the business objectives, and identify the gaps and opportunities for improvement. A balanced scorecard can also help to communicate and monitor the IT strategy and goals, and align the IT activities and resources with the business needs and expectations1 .
