ABSTRACT
An information system (IS) measures toolbox is proposed for evaluating implemented IS. The toolbox supports the evaluator in his action from the definition stage to the results one. The software is based on the content, context, process (CCP) framework with adaptations and the IS systemic view examination. An IS evaluation models and measures library is integrated to the toolbox in order to give material to evaluators about previous studies and their results when addressing the main evaluation questions what is being evaluated, with what measures, why evaluation is being done, who is interested by the evaluation and how to conduct evaluation. The toolbox makes possible the cumulative tradition to be carried forward within the discipline.
