AB  - A Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) was used to manage the 
      laboratory data and support planning and field activities as part of the response 
      to the equine influenza outbreak in Australia in 2007. The database structure of 
      the LIMS and the system configurations that were made to best handle the 
      laboratory implications of the disease response are discussed. The operational 
      aspects of the LIMS and the related procedures used at the laboratory to process 
      the increased sample throughput are reviewed, as is the interaction of the LIMS 
      with other corporate systems used in the management of the response. Outcomes 
      from this tailored configuration and operation of the LIMS resulted in effective 
      provision and control of the laboratory and laboratory information aspects of the 
      response. The extent and immediate availability of the information provided from 
      the LIMS was critical to some of the activities of key operatives involved in 
      controlling the response.
