WAYNE, PA - August 6, 2008 - Deacom, Inc., provider of integrated accounting and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software for the pharmaceutical industry, has joined the Philadelphia area's largest technology and life sciences trade association, Eastern Technology Council, to support business technology initiatives among the Council's pharmaceutical manufacturing member companies.
