The supply chain network design and evaluation is a critical and difficult decision in a supply chain management. In this paper, we present a new method for evaluating the performance of a supply chain network. The main index is cost factors, which include four categories: production costs, disruption costs, co-ordination costs, and vulnerability costs. In addition, in order to describe these cost factors quantitatively, some assumptions are made. Finally, numerical analysis is adopted to illustrate its efficiency and effectiveness in searching for an optimal scheme in supply chain network design
