§ The result
Dayforce leads Dice on all 7 criteria.
Under rubric v1.0, Dayforce (ATS-integrated) opens a 21-point lead on Dice (Sourcing), 57 to 36. Dayforce leads every one of the 7 criteria, Dice none of them, and the closest of the 7 is Post-Market Monitoring, Dayforce 47 to Dice 35. Article 11 Technical Documentation is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing — Dayforce 74, Dice 32 — and at a 20% weight it carries 40% of the weighted advantage Dayforce holds across the 7 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to +21.0 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 21.0 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +21 beside that +21.0.

§ 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.
