Abstract
The integration of the 288 petals needed to build both CMS Tracker End Caps (TECs) is summarized here. There will be first a description of a petal, integrating many components, the most important ones being the silicon modules. The organization of the production, involving seven Institutes all over Europe, will then be explained. The petal assembly and testing procedure will be quickly described. The quality assurance put in place at each production step has resulted in a very high petal quality, as some overall plots will attest. Finally some details about part failures will be given.
