Sumario:The Inner Tracking System (ITS) Upgrade of the ALICE detector at CERN is one of the major upgrades that will take place in 2019–2020. This paper regards the construction procedure and the electrical characterization of the Outer Barrel Module. This is the building element of the four outer layers of the ITS and it is realized assembling together fourteen Monolithic Active Silicon Pixel Sensors with a space precision of the order of few microns. The challenge of the production chain, the characterization test procedure and the results of the first produced prototypes will be shown.
