ma to step conversion is typically searched by users that for some reason struggle with export of Maya files to STEP format. It seems that Maya supports export to STP / STEP format only for objects with NURBS data. But that might be case of old version of Maya and latest versions of the tool should have no issues with export to STEP format.

This may be a good pointer for further searches for certain file conversions and help you find the converter you are looking for if our search result is insufficient for you. However, it is far from perfect and may sometimes show results which are not really usable because of the nature of the software handles the files. So a conversion that appears as possible, just because of matched actions, may in fact not be possible.
