Protocol Library

ShankuChakra Protocols (SCP) are recommended operational procedures for common export workflow steps. They are not official government or international standards — they document ShankuChakra's recommended operational practice and should be adapted to your specific product, buyer and destination.

SCP-001

Export Enquiry Protocol

To ensure that an incoming export enquiry is captured completely and consistently, so that an accurate quotation and product match can be prepared without repeated back-and-forth with the buyer.

SCP-002

Buyer KYC Protocol

To perform reasonable due diligence on a prospective buyer before committing to production, shipment or extending payment flexibility, reducing the risk of non-payment or fraud.

SCP-003

Product Specification Protocol

To document a clear, mutually agreed product specification before production or procurement, reducing disputes over quality at the time of shipment.

SCP-004

Sample Approval Protocol

To ensure that a product sample sent to and approved by a buyer accurately represents the bulk shipment, reducing the risk of a quality mismatch claim later.

SCP-005

Pre-Shipment Quality Protocol

To verify, before a shipment is sealed and dispatched, that the goods conform to the agreed product specification and the approved reference sample.

SCP-006

Container Loading Protocol

To ensure export containers are loaded in a way that protects product condition and quantity during transit, and that loading is verified before the container is sealed.

SCP-007

Export Documentation Protocol

To ensure the full set of export documents for a shipment is accurate, internally consistent, and prepared in time for customs clearance and buyer requirements.

SCP-008

LC Document Verification Protocol

To verify that documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply exactly with the LC's terms and with UCP 600 / ISBP 745 practice, reducing the risk of payment delay or refusal due to discrepancies.

SCP-009

Chilli Quality Protocol

To provide a structured quality-verification process specific to dry red chilli shipments, given the product-specific parameters (pungency, colour, moisture) that most influence buyer acceptance.

SCP-010

Turmeric Quality Protocol

To provide a structured quality-verification process specific to turmeric shipments, given the product-specific parameters (curcumin content, colour, moisture) that most influence buyer acceptance.
