This paper reviewed literature on the management and maintenance of physical facilities for quality assurance in Higher Education in the 21st century with the aim of accessing its implication for the academic growth and sustainability of institutions. Significantly, the administration and maintenance of physical facilities in higher education are very important to the economic and academic growth of the educational system. They are ranked among the determining factors of success in the school system . This study looked at maintenance culture in tertiary schools, innovative methods of plant maintenance and renewal in higher education as well as the benefits of maintaining school physical facilities. It is important that the habit of maintaining existing physical facilities be learned by school heads and transferred to the subordinates and students as a sustaining force and vehicle for retaining equipment and facilities in their original condition of completeness and aesthetics.\u003Cbr>Keywords: Management, maintenance, physical facilities, quality higher education, innovative technologies. |\n| --- |\n| E-mail: fel[icia. mormah@unidel.edu.ng](icia. mormah@unidel.edu.ng), [felymor2017@gmail.com.

Excellent Management and maintenance of physical facilities for quality assurance in higher education in this 21st century are pivots for accelerated achievement of the millennium goal of education accessibility to all. Sapru (2009) maintained that Management is practiced; its essence is not knowing but doing. Its test is not logic but results. Its only authority is performance. The goal of maintaining quality higher education at a reasonable cost can only be achieved through the management and maintenance of available physical facilities for learning. Proper management and maintenance of physical facilities will lead to a quality higher education system which will in turn produce improved quality skills, that will accelerate economic growth and sustainability (Gbenga and Norhasni, 2013) .  \n(Figure 1)  \nA quality school physical facility invariably affects students, teachers and the learning environment in varying ways (Kivisto and Pekkola, 2017) . Teachers are positively impacted and can do their job of teaching more effectively if the facilities are in good condition and up to date. This will automatically rub off positively on students'learning experiences. These assertions are in line with Abdullahi and Wan Yusoff (2018) research findings on facilities management, that the physical facility is the most significant factor that determines facility performance.  \nAbraham (2003) states that \"maintenance of school facilities is concerned with keeping grounds, buildings and equipment in their original condition of completeness or efficiency\". The degree to which a facility or equipment loses its aesthetic value and worth will depend on the materials it is made of, its usage, and its maintenance  \nMormah 221  \nManagement& Maintenance of Physical facilities  \nQuality Higher Education  \nQuality/improved skills  \nEconomic growth, productivity and sustainability  \nFigure 1.
