The energy derived from natural gas and the energy that comes from the passionate people who propel our company forward. Our genuine enthusiasm, combined with our unique blend of passion and attitude influences everything we do, build, support, and sell. We are an organization inspired by a higher purpose, not just profit.
Founded in 1965 by Carl Weber & Ray McCarthy, UPSCO was birthed from their vision to support the natural gas industry and the Utility companies that operate within it. UPSCO employees Jim Bean and Jim Newhart purchased the organization in 1974 and guided the firm until 2004. At that time, Vice President of Operations Andy Boos and Vice President of Sales & Marketing Dan Pajak purchased the company with a vision of elevating UPSCO to the upper echelons of the industry. The 3rd generation employee owners take significant pride in the growth that UPSCO has experienced and the increased positive impact on the lives of the company’s stakeholders under their leadership.
We deal in energy. Not just the kind from natural gas, but the natural energy that comes from people motivated and passionate about what they do.
It’s the balance of work and fun that we value. For us both are connected, one enhancing the other to accomplish great things
We recognize strength in character and conduct. Everyone has a voice that is valued. Everyone earns an important role that commands dignity and respect.
A positive attitude thrives. We believe that you are responsible for your perception and accountable for your actions.
We believe that cooperation, communication, and collaboration are the paths to success. Here, every incremental improvement focuses on bettering our last best through teamwork that drives our standards for leadership, innovation and service.
