When we look at the word prevention cost there must be a problem somewhere in the production of product or goods of the company that has been taken away company resources which we must prevent.
Prevention costs are the cost of action to prevent defects(or reduce the number of defects). They are costs incurred to prevent a quality problem from arising.

Quality problem can arise from a variety of reasons like:
(1) The initial design of the product and method of making it may be poor so that there will be a large number of substandard items produces.
(2) poor raw material used to make the product
(3) The work force may be badly trained and so make a large number of errors in production.
(4) Faulty output may occur when the production machinery is not in good working order.

When we say prevention cost i believe we are talking about lost prevention. How do we secure our property against lost. We have to pay for the prevention cost from professional security experts that will put in parameters in place to ensure that everything is intact and losses are avoided or cut down to it barest minimum.

What we have here in the production business is the so called preventive maintenance. It starts with the delivery vehicles that should have a regular maintenance check to avoid breakdown. With the factory machines that's also the standard. A technician or engineer would do a routine check regularly to avoid breakdowns that will delay the job.
