§ The result
RippleMatch takes the total, Vincere takes more of the criteria.
RippleMatch (Sourcing) edges Vincere (ATS-integrated) by 2 points under rubric v1.0, 46 to 44. Vincere leads more of the criteria than RippleMatch — 4 to 2 — but Bias Audit Transparency, which RippleMatch leads, carries 18% of the rubric, and the weighted sum still falls to RippleMatch. One criterion, Bias Audit Transparency, is both the widest raw gap (RippleMatch 53, Vincere 18) and the heaviest weighted swing, and at 18% weight it makes up 96% of the weighted advantage RippleMatch holds across the 2 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to +2.0 — 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 +2 beside that +2.0.

§ 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.
