(37) Verification of the suitability and the selection of candidates should be carried out in transparent conditions. For this purpose, non-discriminatory criteria should be indicated which the contracting authorities may use when selecting competitors and the means which economic operators may use to prove they have satisfied those criteria. In the same spirit of transparency, the contracting authority should be required, as soon as a contract is put out to competition, to indicate the selection criteria it will use and the level of specific competence it may or may not demand of the economic operators before admitting them to the procurement procedure. In the selection of candidates, contracting authorities should take into account the needs of autonomy and operational sovereignty from a European perspective, and the need to sustain European industrial and technological pre-eminence where this is economically valuable.
