Juran's Quality Trilogy

It seems that every firm has its own definition of "Quality." There are many different definitions of quality in use. I think that is fine, different firms have different customer demands, and quality in a mining industry has a very different perspective than an aerospace turbine manufacturer. Two dominant meanings of quality are:

- Quality consists of those product features which meet the needs of the customers and thereby provide product satisfaction.

- Quality consists of freedom from deficiencies.

I frequently cite Juran's quality trilogy as a structure for implementing or improving a firm's quality processes. The quality trilogy consists of quality planning, quality control, and quality improvement.
