Abstract: 
Final Year Project supervision in Nigeria Tertiary Institutions is one of the challenging tasks confronting both the students and their supervisors at all levels resulting to poor, sub-standard students’ projects that add no value to the society. In this work, the challenges are identified with respect to all stakeholders in the business of Project Supervision which include students, supervisors, examiners and administrators. The identified challenges are the basis for a web-based Project Supervision System developed in this work, which is a platform that enables improved communication and synergy between the stakeholders. This system provides a comprehensive solution to the identified challenges and insights for a solid foundation for Nigeria Tertiary Institutions to transform the Final Year Project supervision process into an effective and useful results that add value to the society.
