One easy and often over looked step is to call out IPC-6012A compliance on the PO. You will also need to call out the class status. If you get in an issue regarding quality you will have a resource to fall back on. Sounds simple but ask your buyers

IPC-6012A finds "circuit repairs" as acceptable in Class 1, 2, and 3 only "As agreed by user and supplier." So, it is your call, basically. Generally these repairs, if done properly, are reliable. See IPC-7721, 5.2.3, for conductor repair by welding
