  This paper presents an overview of S2AEA (v2) (Strategic Alignment Assessment
based on Enterprise Architecture (version2)), a platform for modelling
enterprise architecture and for assessing strategic alignment based on internal
enterprise architecture metrics. The idea of the platform is based on the fact
that enterprise architecture provides a structure for business processes and
information systems that supports them. This structure can be used to measure
the degree of consistency between business strategies and information systems.
In that sense, this paper presents a platform illustrating the role of
enterprise architecture in the strategic alignment assessment. This assessment
can be used in auditing information systems. The platform is applied to assess
an e-government process.
