Find a current (< 3 years old) article on a trend or issue in materiel acquisition management. Because it's very difficult to separate supply/materiel management from overall supply chain management, it's ok to use an article on supply chain management as long as it addresses a topic in supply/materiel management. These should NOT be "book reports" that only summarize the article. Apply the article of how the article applies to your current position or organization (or one with which you are familiar if you're not currently working for an organization that utilizes a supply chain or manages materiel). Be sure to include a reference to the article.
