Abstract
The paper is a scrupulous review of existing literature and research finding on material supply management in higher education. Relevant documents were thoroughly revisited and amalgamated into a manageable way to comprehensively bequeath empirical knowledge and an authentic picture of how material management looks like in higher education. Finally , the paper concluded that despite insufficient funding and ineffective system quality there are also high corruption and managerial negligence from the side of the institutions. Moreover, poor procurement planning, material inflow and out - follow laxity and lack of potential supplier identification were also seen as the major procurement defect.
