How we rank DORA providers
Last updated: DORA Auditor Editorial Team
Every provider in our directory is scored against the same seven weighted dimensions. Scores are based on publicly available information, official websites, regulatory publications, and documented case studies, and are refreshed quarterly. We do not accept payment for a higher ranking.
The seven scoring dimensions
Each dimension is scored from 0–100. A provider's overall score is the weighted average, which drives its position in the directory and its star rating.
| Dimension | Weight | What it measures |
|---|---|---|
| DORA-specific expertise | 25% | Dedicated DORA practice vs. general compliance capability. |
| Regulatory track record | 20% | Published DORA guidance and engagement with ESMA/EBA. |
| Entity type coverage | 15% | Breadth of financial-entity types served. |
| Geographic coverage | 15% | EU member states covered. |
| Service breadth | 10% | Gap assessment, audit, consulting, tooling. |
| Client evidence | 10% | Public case studies and testimonials. |
| Pricing transparency | 5% | Public pricing or ranges available. |
How we keep it fair
- Same criteria for everyone. No provider is scored on a different scale, and category (Big 4, specialist, platform) does not confer a bonus.
- Limitations are mandatory. Every profile must list at least one limitation, a page with only strengths does not publish.
- Sourced claims. Factual statements link to primary sources. Editorial judgements (scores) are clearly labelled as ours.
- Quarterly review. Scores and rankings are revisited every quarter, and whenever a provider materially changes its offering.
