The "IHM" is reported as "inventory health management," but I'm not sure about the "J." Bloomberg reported it as being an intentionally boring acronym/expansion.

Jeff's Inventory Health Management?

Not sure what the J was for. Internally it’s been IHM since I joined. “Inventory Health Management” is a backronym. I won’t spill the - albeit boring - beans on where IHM actually comes from.

Yeah it does have the backronym flavor to it so that tracks.
