    <description descriptionType="Abstract">&lt;p&gt;5G-VINNI introduces the notion of 5G-VINNI Business Layer, which is a collection of BSS and OSS functions required for the operation of pre-commercial 5G testbeds and commercial 5G networks. In this white paper, we present the capabilities and design of the business layer, and a plan for the phased rollout of these capabilities along four Maturity Levels (MLs) of the 5G-VINNI facility. The MLs capture the evolution of 5G-VINNI facility: ML1 - operation for internal testing, ML2 - operation for a restricted set of customers, ML4 &amp;ndash; outline of the long-term vision of commercial 5G-VINNI experimentation as a service. We analyse&amp;nbsp;how internal and external users&amp;nbsp;rank their requirements to the business layer. Thereby, we provide insights about how business layer functions should be prioritized in the rollout. In order to propose a plan for the release of the business layer capabilities, a mapping of requirements to capabilities is defined.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
