Abstract: In the high-luminosity era of the Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC), the instantaneous luminosity will reach unprecedented levels, with up to 200 proton-proton interactions per bunch crossing. To address the challenges posed by this environment, the ATLAS Inner Detector will be replaced with the all-silicon Inner Tracker (ITk). The innermost section of the ITk will feature a pixel detector comprising approximately 10,000 modules, covering a total active area of 13m$^2$. To meet the evolving demands for radiation hardness, power dissipation, and production yield, the five barrel and endcap layers will incorporate several new technologies. The project is currently transitioning from pre-production to full-scale production, involving the fabrication of components, modules, mechanical structures, and services. This contribution provides an overview of the current status of the ITk pixel detector.
