HHCC here and Mullen in Wenham, Mass., are sister Interpublic shops.

Pile and Co., the consulting company in Boston, is overseeing the search for Murray, Hill, N.J.-based Lucent.

Billings have not been disclosed, but sources said initial spending on the assignment, which includes both creative development and media chores, will be $20-25 million.
