Answer:

The easiest way to document the measurement is to define the information security objectives for each control (or group of controls) through the Statement of Applicability, and then regularly review if those objectives are achieved - this can be done through the Management meeting minutes, and no other documents are needed. For a smaller company, this approach is the best because it doesn't require too many documents.
