Claim 0:
1. An apparatus configured for a service producer in a new radio (NR) network, the apparatus comprising:
processing circuitry to configure the apparatus:
collect performance measurements of a next generation radio access network (NG-RAN), the performance measurements comprising a downlink (DL) delay distribution between the NG-RAN and a user equipment (UE) and an uplink (UL) delay distribution between the NG-RAN and the UE, each of the DL and UL delay distribution comprising a NG-RAN delay of the NG-RAN and a delay over a Uu interface, the NG-RAN delay including a delay at a 5th generation NodeB (gNB) centralized unit user plane (gNB-CU-UP), a delay on an F1-U interface, and a delay on a gNB distributed unit (gNB-DU); and
send, to a management services consumer, the performance measurements to generate analytics based on the performance measurements, adjustment of network resources to improve the performance measurements being dependent on the analytics; and

a memory configured to store the performance measurements.
