Hi, I've made a bunch of Ribbons/Awards that you can use in your biographies (or I guess anywhere else really)
Categorised for clarity
Service Ribbons:
These ribbons are usually awarded by the commanding or superior officer of at least Lieutenant Commander rank or Academy Commandant.
Departmental Service Ribbons
These ribbons are given for exceptional performance of one's duties in their department and available in three tiers. These awards are not limited to being awarded only a single time and receiving a lower tier ribbon is not a requirement for receiving a higher ribbon. For example to be awarded a Golden ribbon, the officer is not required to have been awarded a Silver ribbon previously.

Starfleet awards are given to exceptional personnel by a flag officer usually of Vice Admiral rank or a Fleet Admiral and subject to approval by the Starfleet Office of Service (Colloquially known as the Pink Wing).
Federation awards:
The highest tier of awards available in the United Federation of Planets, these awards are usually given by the President of the UFP or the Chief of Staff of Starfleet and can be given to any Citizen of the Federation.
And that's it! If you have any suggestions or feedback about these, please let me know.
