Nowadays, in the world of industry end-users of business rules inside huge or small companies claims that it's so hard to understand the rules either because they are hand written by a specific structural or procedural languages used only inside their organizations or because they require a certain understanding of the back-end process. As a result, a high need for a better management system that is easy to use, easy to maintain during the evolution process has increased. In this paper, the emphasis is put on building a business rule management system (BRMS) as a graphical editor for editing the models in a flexible agile manner with the assistant of ATL and Sirius frameworks within Eclipse platform. Thus, the proposed solution, on one hand, solves the problem of wasting resources dedicated for updating the rules and on the other hand it guarantees a great visibility and reusability of the rules.
