How have others identified the foreign nationals affected by the deemed export rule, within their organization, while avoiding the appearance of discrimination?

Does anyone have a form they use when asking for a part description? Suggestions?

Does anyone have any experience implementing a deemed export program? We are starting a program and are not quite sure how to ask all of the current employees(U.S. and Foreign Nationals) from a HR standpoint to supply all of the information we need. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
