Primes¶
- Monitoring
- Systems always exhibit fluctuation; the problem is separating routine variation from changes that warrant investigation or response—the same separation Page (1954) operationalized in his cumulative-sum (CUSUM) inspection scheme for detecting persistent shifts above background variability.
This sourceIntroduces the cumulative-sum (CUSUM) control chart; provides a sensitive method for distinguishing assignable causes (small persistent shifts) from random variation, complementing Shewhart-chart detection of large transient deviations.

- Quality Control
- This bounds effort to signals that actually matter, preventing both the paralysis of over-response and the danger of under-response, an early-detection problem Page (1954) addressed with cumulative-sum (CUSUM) inspection schemes for sensitively flagging small persistent shifts.

Mechanisms¶
- Residual-Monitoring Dashboard
- This is not a one-week blip but a drift, and a cumulative-sum control chart flags it within ≈3 weeks, well before the bias would show up as a warehouse full of unsold stock.
