National Blood Authority's Enterprise Data Warehouse (EDW), affectionately known as Big Red, houses historical data for reporting and analytical purposes.  The data is collected in NBAs operational systems such as BloodNet [2] and Australian Bleeding Disorders Registry [3].

NBA relies on Big Red for statistical analysis and is the data source for the majority of the statistics, graphs and tables shown in NBA Annual Reports. An example of the type of data that can be generated from Big Red is displayed below. Click image to enlarge.
