In practiceExtending this from people to companies is our reading, not the directorate's. Officially the word is used about households.
A grid company has preparedness agreements, framework contracts and suppliers obliged to turn up. They cost money, they take time to negotiate, and they cover what they cover. The beredskapsvenn is the cheap layer underneath: someone you know, who has what you lack, and who you already know you can call.
That is the idea LEIDANG is built on. The part you are missing is usually sitting unused with someone else in the industry, and the marketplace makes it visible without an agreement having to be negotiated first. LEIDANG replaces no preparedness agreement. It adds an option, and having several options is the whole point when something fails without warning.
The historical leidang was the same arrangement, formalised: each district knew what the others were to provide, and who they could count on. The difference from a bilateral agreement is the number. A fleet offers more options than a single counterparty.
