Susceptibles seems to be solvable with a modal may or can, although other suggestions will be gratefully received.
But the end of the sentence has me stumped - Alcaraz and Hughes give "return for services rendered", but can't see how that fits in here.
This is an academic paper, btw.
Según la Organización y Funcionamiento de la Administración General del Estado (LOFAGE) las Entidades públicas empresariales se encargan de la realización de actividades prestacionales, gestión de servicios o producción de bienes de interés público *susceptibles de contraprestación*.

contraprestación: prestación de la otra parte involucrada
so I'd say: that allow for return for services rendered / reciprocal returns.
hope it helps.

It's so unfair to get 1 kudo less, for all my help, when she said -in her own words-she was sitting without a dictionary. Unfair.

eligible for consideration
contraprestación is usually consideration... but there's not enough detail (and I suspect your text does not have enough detail) to figure out what is really going on...

Hay una referencia a esto en una traducci'on inversa en
http://www.proz.com/kudoz/201025
susceptible de contraprestaci'on quiere decir evidentemente como dicen Alcaraz and Huges 'return for services rendered', que puede ser me imagino en forma pecuniaria o en forma de otros servicios.
