ACI委员会121制定了本手册，为混凝土施工行业提供基于ISO 9001:2000的质量管理体系要求和指导。对ISO 9001:2000的每一条款进行了讨论，提供了建议和具体施工信息，可作为制定符合ISO 9001:2000的新质量管理体系或升级ISO 9001:1994或其他质量管理体系以满足ISO 9001:2000要求的参考。附录A“设计师、施工经理和施工人员的模型质量管理体系手册”以“纽约市MTA桥梁和隧道、工程和施工部门”为基础，建议用作任何开始编写质量手册的公司的模板。

ACI Committee 121 developed this manual to provide ISO 9001:2000-based quality management system requirements and guidance to the concrete construction industry. Discussion is offered for each clause of theISO 9001:2000, providing advice and construction-specific information that can be used as a reference to either produce a new quality management system compliant with ISO 9001:2000, or to upgrade an ISO 9001:1994 or other quality management system to meet the ISO 9001:2000 requirements. Appendix A, "Model Quality Management System Manual for Designers, Construction Managers, and Constructors," is based on the "NYC MTA Bridges and Tunnels, Engineering and Construction Department," and is recommended for use as a template for any company beginning to write a quality manual.
