Boeing's explanation is that the flight automation software runs on some sort of "timer" and the timing apparently wasn't configured correctly, so Starliner thought it was at a different part of the mission and did the wrong burns.
Astonishing to me they make it sound like it runs like an independent stopwatch and not kept in sync with the actual IRL mission parameters in a more direct/continuous way. They're talking about the automation handover between the launch vehicle to the spacecraft, and on Starliner "clearly the time got messed up" ... "the spacecraft was not on the timer we expected it to be on"
