This is one method to obtain individual column formatting in your Table. The
formatting has to go in mem.

SetOptions[NumberForm,
    ExponentFunction -> (Null &),
    NumberSigns -> {"-", " "},
    NumberPadding -> {" ", "0"}];

ClearAll[f, mem]
f[x_] := (x - 3)(x - 4);
mem[func_] := mem[func] = {};
mem[x_, func_] := Module[{t = func[x]},
      AppendTo[
        mem[func], {NumberForm[x, {12, 11}], NumberForm[t, {3, 2}],
          ScientificForm[func'[x], {3, 2},
            NumberSigns -> {"-", " "},
            NumberPadding -> {" ", "0"}]}];
      t];
FindMinimum[mem[x, f], {x, 2}]
 TableForm[mem[f], TableHeadings -> {Automatic, {"x", "f[x]",
"f'[x]"}}]
