“In a letter to employees, Max Hopper, American Airlines Information Services chief, wrote: ‘Some people who have been part of CONFIRM management did not disclose the true status of the project in a timely manner. This has created more difficult problems--of both business ethics and finance--than would have existed if those people had come forward with accurate information. Honesty is an imperative in our business--it is an ethical and technical imperatives.’ Apparently, the clients were misled into continuing to invest in an operation plagued with problems in database, decision-support, and integration technologies (Oz, Effy.
