An optical performance's improvement of the interaction region can be obtained with the addition of new quadrupoles in the forward detectors area. Such scenario would allow decreasing the $β*$ below the nominal value. The basic concept consists in using quadrupoles to break the quadratic behavior of $β$ in the free space between the IP and the IR triplets. In this new configuration we present the performance improvements and the hardware requirements.

After several years of intensive effort, the construction of the superconducting matching quadrupoles for the LHC insertions is nearing completion. We retrace the main events of the project from the initial development of quadrupole magnets of several types to the series production of over 100 complex cryo-magnets, and report on the techniques developed for steering of the production. The main performance parameters for the full series, such as quench training, field quality and magnet geometry are presented. The experience gained in the production of these special superconducting magnets is of considerable value for further development of the LHC insertions.
