This is basically what statistical process control charts do for you. If you haven't learned about it already, I can recommend looking it up!

Statistical process control always seemed like some thing that would benefit me in my work, but I don't know anything about it. I have looked up random Wikipedia articles, but that's all I know. Do you know of any more "serious" learning resources in that area?
I think the most succinct intro I have found is Donald Wheeler's Understanding Variation.

I've long wanted to write an open article series for someone like you but never gotten around to it. There's so much information out there, but you sort of have to piece it together on your own, which is suboptimal.

You know what? I finally bit the bullet thanks to your comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33507217
