§ The result
Alva Labs leads Turing on all 7 criteria.
Rubric v1.0 separates Alva Labs and Turing, both Assessment entries, by 25 points: 61 (D) for Alva Labs, 36 (F) for Turing. Alva Labs leads every one of the 7 criteria and 5 of them by 20 raw points or more, Article 11 Technical Documentation among them; Turing leads none. Article 11 Technical Documentation is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (Alva Labs 78, Turing 42, 20% weight), but it accounts for only 29% of the weighted advantage Alva Labs holds across the 7 criteria on that side of the table.
Vendor profile
Alva Labs

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to +24.9 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 24.9 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +25 beside that +24.9.
§ Category-by-category
Raw score per criterion, with weighted delta.
Δ is Alva Labs minus Turing.

§ Evidence
Cited sources and documented absences, criterion by criterion.
An absence is a finding, not a blank: the reviewer looked for a named artefact and recorded that it is not located. Where a source sits is a fact about hosting only.
