§ The result
SHL leads Clevry on 4 of the 7 criteria.
Inside the Assessment cohort, rubric v1.0 puts SHL on 51 and Clevry on 45, 6 points apart. Clevry is ahead on none of the 7 criteria: SHL takes 4, the remaining 3 are level, and the nearest of those 4 is Data Governance Disclosure, Clevry 55 to SHL 58. Bias Audit Transparency is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing — Clevry 38, SHL 50 — and at an 18% weight it carries 40% of the weighted advantage SHL holds across the 4 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 4 figures above sum to -5.4 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 5.4 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -6 beside that -5.4.

§ 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.
