To make this research easier, you can divide the task of research on each criterion among the members of your group (each member will be in charge of one criterion). I encourage the members of each group to create a group on any online platform that you are all comfortable with, and meet regularly to discuss your findings, so all the members of your group are equally informed of the findings.
