Our clients have spent some money trying to get it right and provide something a bit more useful than a brochure and we were hoping to submit them to some kind of award that basically encourages this kind of thinking.
Are you talking about websites that actually use standards complianet code?

Short answer - no (unless someone wants to correct me), there is no official awards like the golden spiders that rewards websites for using standards compliant code or general good practice.
