§ The result
Ribbon leads HirePro on 5 of the 7 criteria.
Inside the Screening cohort, rubric v1.0 puts Ribbon on 43 and HirePro on 38, 5 points apart. HirePro is ahead on none of the 7 criteria: Ribbon takes 5, the remaining 2 are level, and the nearest of those 5 is Post-Market Monitoring, HirePro 35 to Ribbon 37. Article 11 Technical Documentation is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing — HirePro 30, Ribbon 42 — and at a 20% weight it carries 46% of the weighted advantage Ribbon holds across the 5 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 5 figures above sum to -5.2 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 5.2 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -5 beside that -5.2.

§ 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.
