§ The result
Canditech leads Arena Analytics on 6 of the 7 criteria.
Canditech scores 39 and Arena Analytics 32 under rubric v1.0, a 7-point gap across the Assessment and Screening cohorts. Canditech leads 6 of the 7 criteria and the remaining criterion is level, so Arena Analytics is ahead on none of them; the closest of the 6 Canditech leads is Post-Market Monitoring, Arena Analytics 28 to Canditech 32. Customer Documentation is the widest raw gap (Arena Analytics 38, Canditech 58) but not the heaviest weighted swing, which is Human Oversight Design at 12% (Arena Analytics 38, Canditech 53), 24% of the weighted advantage Canditech builds across the 6 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to -7.5 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 7.5 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -7 beside that -7.5.

§ 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.
