Be Member Driven: Manage the Association in a way that engages members, promotes member value, commits to diversity, and demonstrates operational excellence by providing the financial, staff and member resources needed to achieve our priorities. Member involvement has always been the key to our success and VMA offers a wide range of Committees where members can benchmark with other companies, form relationships within the industry to address issues together, and contribute expertise and guidance.

Encourage industry and member company growth, interaction and innovation: Advance member company efforts in growing their business by providing information, research, business opportunities and a platform to address and solve issues. Our programs and issues are driven by our member committees which help to guide VMA.

Be the unified voice of the industrial valve industry: Represent the valve industry as a sector of manufacturing that is vibrant, attractive, innovative, and responsible. VMA’s activities in workforce, government affairs, and with others in the industrial valve value chain help us reach audiences important to our industry.

Demonstrate thought leadership and provide industry expertise and education: Educate members, end users and the industry to facilitate innovation, efficiencies in production and distribution, increases in health, safety and environmental protection; and to promote the proper use of flow control equipment throughout the world. Our quarterly VALVE Magazine, various events held throughout the year, and white papers are examples of who we accomplish this priority.

Represent the industry to policy makers: Enhance advocacy and influence government activities to create a positive business operating environment and opportunities for industry growth. Our policy and regulatory agenda is developed by a newly formed Government Affairs Committee.
