In mysql, you can use "FULL TEXT SEARCH" option. For this you have to add index on all of three fields First name, Last name and Phone.
After that you will use the query
Help with Code Tags 
SELECT rowid, (match (firstname, lastname, phone) against ('$keyword')) as score 
FROM contact 
where (match(firstname, lastname, phone) against ('$keywork'))

OR

Help with Code Tags 
SELECT rowid, (match (firstname, lastname, phone) against ('$keyword')) as score 
FROM contact 
where (match(firstname, lastname, phone) against ('$keywork') IN BOOLEAN MODE)

For detail about the full text search you can read
