No. Question Response

Confirming the scope of these questions are for the entirety of the offeror? Yes

Does "entity" refer to the actual legal/financial company structure or is information for a discrete product line sufficient?

Typically this is based on the offeror submitting under the AFP and should represent the offerer's legal entity. This is normally based on the company's structure, but offerors may also include additional information by discrete product line as additional information.

Does "size" refer to facility footprint?

(sqft) and is this a required detail or is a list of locations sufficient?

No this refers to size of the company and not specifically to SQFT. List of locations that includes number of employees would be sufficient.
