§ The result
4 points separate Tezi and Plum.
Tezi (Screening) edges Plum (Assessment) by 4 points under rubric v1.0, 58 to 54. Tezi leads 4 of the 7 criteria, including Post-Market Monitoring, while Plum leads 2, including Article 11 Technical Documentation, and 1 is level. Post-Market Monitoring is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing — Plum 36, Tezi 58 — and at a 12% weight it carries 47% of the weighted advantage Tezi holds across the 4 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to -3.4 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 7.8 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -4 beside that -3.4.

§ 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.
