This paper claims for the valuation of Supply Chain
Network robustness as a necessary condition to ensure sustainable value
creation. Several definitions of robustness, approachability and resilience are
reviewed. The first section of the paper provides introduction to ASML, the
second section provides problem description, the third section provides an
overview of ASML’s service supply chain, the fourth section describes spare
part distribution network of ASML, the fifth section provides description on
pilot project which has been taken into consideration to implement network
design principles in China, the sixth section provides brief description how
ASML will use center of gravity method to identify two new locations in China,
the seventh section briefly describes framework for network design decisions,  the eighth section provides trade off
principles and concepts and finally section nine provides conclusion of this
paper.
