Among the main problem faced by Higher institutions of learning are the effective implementation of Supply Chain Management (SCM) policies and Asset Management (AM) policies. This study sorts to enhance and improve the annual performance plan which will be aligned with Higher institutions of learning strategic plan 2015-2019 (2020-2025) as required by South Africa Higher Education act 101 of 1997. For any organisation to operate effectively and efficiently, there is strong need to implement policies that are in lined with the organisational Mission, Objective and Vision but not superseding the act which the organisation should operating under. Forty participant were sampled for the study and the interpretivist paradigm was adopted by the researcher. The findings revealed that although the institution has Supply Chain Management in policies in place, it is still far from ensuring efficient and effective implementation of these policies. it also emerged that some of the institution’s personnel lack coordination and thorough understanding of how these policies are to be applied. The implementation of these policies must be driven by relevant stakeholders and end users; hence, management of the institution must create a structure that promotes consistency, compliance, and monitoring throughout the implementation process to ensure openness, transparency, and cost-saving.
