Perceptiveness (to slight changes in quality levels, etc.)
This is just one of many options, but it sounds natural, and I have often used this while interpreting "lean manufacturing" trainings. Its an important part of learning the knack for tribal knowledge that expert operators have for doing quality assurance and other jobs on the shop floor.

there's an extra "f" in there. I meant to write "knack OR tribal knowledge"

: I used it too. It is more than observation, it is more like these qc operators just seem to 'know' that there is something off with the product just by looking or picking it up.

この「気付き」というのは、何かをじっくり観察するというよりは、直感的に感じる感覚だと思いました（あ、機械の音がいつもと違うな・・など）。
