ABSTRACT In this research were evaluated open source systems that manage business rules in the "Control of medical records for kidney transplantation." A systematic literature review was conducted to establish the initial list of programs that manage business rules. It was applied the method of Graham to evaluate ​​technological properties of the software and cultural characteristics of the organization that uses it. The business rules management system Drools obtained the best results as it is capable of processing more rules, transactions and users. It allows you to write rules near to natural language, also its ASL2 license places no restrictions on derivative software. The second and third position were reached by OpenRules and OpenL Tablets. We suggest using Drools in scenarios where a large number of rules exists and business users are responsible for their management. When the number of rules is not high OpenRules is suggested and if the GPL license is a problem then OpenL Tablets is recommended. There was presented a Drools based architecture that can be generalized to solutions that use OpenRules or OpenL Tablets.
