Comparison of the three quality gurus: Philip Crosby, W. Edwards Deming and Joseph Juran Deming believed that organisations could increase quality and reduce costs by having continuous process improvement and by viewing manufacturing as a system, not as bits and pieces. Juran applied the Pareto principle to quality issues (80% of the problems are caused by 20% of the causes) and also developed Juran’s Trilogy which includes: quality planning, quality control, and quality improvement. Crosby’s solution
Deming Dr. W. Edward Deming is known for reminding management that most problems are systemic and it is management’s responsibility to enhance the system in order to for the workers to do their job in a more effective way. Deming state that higher quality leads to higher productivity, as a result leads to long term competitive strength. The theory is that improvements in quality lead to lower costs and high productivity because they result in less rework, fewer mistakes, fewer delays, and better
causes of variation in product/process. He invented the PDSAcycle for the Process control in the organization. EDWARDS DEMING.W: He taught statistical process control methods and the importance of various quality control techniques to the emerging CEO’s of Japanese industry during the period between1946-1949.

Introduction Total quality management received substantial consideration from researchers in the past two decades. Many researchers have investigated the interrelationship among quality constructs as well as the impact of quality management on quality performance, business performance, and operational performance. Researchers also investigated the effect of quality management on different operational practices such as just-in-time production, mass customization, supply chain management, new product
