Abstract: The assembly of the ATLAS Inner Tracker requires the construction of 19,000 silicon strip sensor detector modules in eight different geometries. Modules will be assembled and tested at 31 institutes on four continents from sensors, readout chips, and flexes. In order to adhere to the module specifications defined for sufficient tracking performance, a rigorous programme of quality control (QC) was established to cover components at every stage of assembly. This contribution presents an overview of the QC programme for ITk strip tracker modules, issues encountered during the pre-production phase (5% of the production volume), and their solutions.
