As we work to develop a supplier Representations and Certifications package for use under Government prime contracts, how does one best determine what FAR/DFARS clauses should be in the package? Is there a reference or suggested methodology? Having used many Reps and Certs packages through the years, but never having been tasked with developing a new package, I'm asking for guidance on how best to start. Of course, we could start with previously-developed packages, but that approach doesn't improve our developmental knowledge. Your thoughts and guidance would be most appreciated. Thank you.

Most contractors have their Reps and Certs in ORCA.

The matrix in the back of the FAR should help.

The ABA Public Contract Law Section's "Guide to Service Subcontract Terms and Conditions" has a section setting out what it felt were mandatory or advisable reps and certs. Although it focuses on service contracts, it should give you a place to start.

I read your post that you are coming at if from a Prime's perspective for your subcontractors. I did a couple of different Google's using some different wording and did find that there is training available on the subject. As the Federal regs are dynamic taking in a seminar or class might help update your knowledge base.
