Arguably Foxconn is in the business of being a legal firewall between a company's factories and their management. Presumably the reason why Apple hasn't gone Fully Vertically Integrated (which they certainly have the resources to accomplish) is the savings seen by going vertical wouldn't improve shareholder value/risk enough to offset the cost.
