Past failure to apply sufficient tenacity, perseverance, and effort to perform acceptably is strong evidence of non-responsibility. Failure to meet the quality requirements of a contract is a significant factor to consider in determining satisfactory performance.

12. Such other information as may be secured having a bearing on whether the bidder is responsible and has submitted a responsive bid.
