It made use of a descriptive method of research. The questionnaire and interview were employed as tools in data gathering. The key findings revealed that most of the HEIs implemented their information systems through outsourcing, had few years of system implementation, had an average budget allocation, had on-going technical support, and had an existing management structure of the information systems. The management strategies utilized by HEIs were highly implemented, while the practices were often practiced to both in-house development and outsourcing methods.
