SALT LAKE CITY--COMPLETExRM, a leading provider of Enterprise 2.0 solutions for the SMB (small to medium business), today announced that it has received funding from key investors Donald L. Lucas, LongBow Holdings Company LLC, and the University Venture Fund. The company also announced the appointment of Donald Lucas to Chairman of the Board.

Lucas has served on the Oracle Board of Directors since March 1980. He has been a member and Chairman of the Executive Committee since December 1985, a member of the Finance and Audit Committee since December 1982. He was Chairman of the Board of Oracle from October 1980 to May 1990.

“The success of Web 2.0—and COMPLETExRM’s partnership with FranklinCovey as the foundation for PlanPlus™ Online—have been critical keys to the company’s early success,” Lucas stated. “However, this is only the beginning. The CxRM foundation manages the dynamic relationships between people and services in an entirely new way.”

“CxRM is delivering Enterprise 2.0—which is about the ways that Web 2.0 enables the business person—and is making it fully accessible for the SMB customer for the very first time.”

“Today’s announcement is a clear signal that the investment community recognizes the full potential of CxRM,” said Michael J. Morgan, CEO and co-founder of COMPLETExRM. “We are especially honored to welcome Don Lucas as our Chairman of the Board.
