§ The result
Sense leads Hogan Assessments on 6 of the 7 criteria.
Sense sits 11 points above Hogan Assessments under rubric v1.0 — 58 against 47 — with Sense filed under Screening and Hogan Assessments under Assessment. Sense leads 6 of the 7 criteria and the remaining criterion is level, so Hogan Assessments is ahead on none of them; the closest of the 6 Sense leads is FRIA Support, Hogan Assessments 36 to Sense 38. Bias Audit Transparency is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing — Hogan Assessments 44, Sense 72 — and at an 18% weight it carries 45% of the weighted advantage Sense holds across the 6 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to -11.1 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 11.1 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -11 beside that -11.1.

§ 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.
