Use a scan tool and check for fault codes.

When the fuel pump relay does not operate, there will be 8 or more codes stored.... verify that this is the case (if no, might
be something else).

What size engine?

Did you check the fuse for the fuel pump? Did you bypass the relay to see if the pump / car runs?

I would first bridge out the relay and see if the pump fires up, let me know what you find.
