The next years improvements on existing beam instruments and new insta
llations are foreseen. This presentation will summarize these activiti
es including time scales and expected performance. In detail the follo
wing subjects will be covered: Upgrade of the orbit system COPOS, tune
measurements, chromaticity measurement system, transverse emittance m
easurements and a new monitor to measure the matching of the transvers
e emittance at injection. A specific chapter will treat installations
in the SPS aimed at studies for the LHC instrumentation.
