§ The result
UKG leads Moonhub on all 7 criteria.
UKG sits 14 points above Moonhub under rubric v1.0 — 44 against 30 — with UKG filed under ATS-integrated and Moonhub under Sourcing. UKG is ahead of Moonhub on all 7 criteria but on none of them by as much as 20 raw points, the closest being Human Oversight Design at Moonhub 48 to UKG 52. Article 11 Technical Documentation is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (Moonhub 30, UKG 48, 20% weight), but it accounts for only 27% of the weighted advantage UKG 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 -13.4 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 13.4 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -14 beside that -13.4.

§ 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.
