Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountants.

On July 28, 2006, Kevane Soto Pasarell Grant Thornton LLP (“Kevane”) advised us that it is resigning as our independent registered accounting firm as of the completion of the third quarter interim review.

Kevane was the independent accountant for Plaza Consulting Group, Inc. (“Plaza”) during the fiscal years ended October 31, 2005 and 2004. Kevane’s report for these periods did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor was it qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. Plaza was acquired by Pharma-Bio Serv, Inc. (the Registrant) on January 25, 2006. There were no disagreements with Kevane during the period ended October 31, 2005 or during the period subsequent to October 31, 2005 on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure.
