Article Abstract:

Vertical integration has been replaced by outsourcing as the conventional wisdom. Cost reductions and increased flexibility can be gained from outsourcing.

Risk levels drop as the number of employees falls. Legal liability for employees, and measures to protect employees in Europe have led to less inclination to employ people.
