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 and assurance was established to cover components at every stage of assembly. This contribution presents an overview of the QA/QC programme for ITk strip tracker modules, results from the pre-production phase (5% of the production volume) and proposed adjustments for production.
