The announcement of civil awards, including Pride of Performance, is generally made once a year on Independence Day (14 August), and the investiture ceremony takes place on the following Pakistan Day (23 March) by the President of Pakistan.
The Pride of Performance award has no particular standing in Pakistani civil decorations hierarchy, but is regarded as one of the highest honours in Pakistan.
