Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

Verista (formerly Delta Project Management) is a legitimate, established life sciences consulting firm with significant scale (~350 employees, estimated $50M+ revenue), placing it in the 'Comparable/Large Scale' calibration tier. However, the project submission quality is extremely poor, containing false claims about audience reach ('everyone') and traction ('most people have used my product'). While the underlying business fundamentals (Traction, Utility) are strong and verifiable, the score is heavily penalized by low Quality Factors due to the vague, copy-pasted, and inaccurate submission data.
