Universal Steel
As long-time Members of the co-op, Universal Steel reports the greatest benefit is the relationships and new ideas from fellow NASA Members. Prior to joining NASA, they were slightly concerned whether the financial and time investment to the co-op would be well spent. Now, 22 years later, Universal Steel has found that in addition to annual rebates, the collective strength of co-op has been the biggest benefit to Membership.

"If you are a small service center you get access to Suppliers whom you might not otherwise be working with. If you are larger, you still get the benefit of the rebates along with strong Member and Supplier relationships." - Richard Williams, President, The Universal Steel Company
