§ The result
Greenhouse leads iCIMS on all 7 criteria.
Greenhouse sits 12 points above iCIMS under rubric v1.0, 67 (D) against 55 (F), with both filed under ATS-integrated. Greenhouse leads every one of the 7 criteria, iCIMS none of them, and the closest of the 7 is Customer Documentation, Greenhouse 64 to iCIMS 62. Article 11 Technical Documentation is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (Greenhouse 78, iCIMS 58, 20% weight), but it accounts for only 33% of the weighted advantage Greenhouse 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 +12.1 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 12.1 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +12 beside that +12.1.

§ 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.
