I feel compelled to say... this is a misuse of Maven. Maven is a build /
project management system and isn't a provisioning system, which is what
you are looking for. Since you are targetting Windows, Microsoft
ConfigMgr (fka SMS) is the natural choice, although there are probably
cheaper options available.
You can use Maven to produce the artifacts used by a provisioning system
(e.g. RPM, DEB packages) or to produce your own installers (e.g. NSIS).

Hi i have been trying to develop a automated application on maven which
reduces the time of people in installing various programs such as
netbeans,grails or any other program on a brand new or a formatted PC.
i am a noob to the world of Maven, i have been reading and developing the
samples provided.
But i have some questions when it comes to this,
1. Do i have to write my own plugin for this, i read about a EXEC plugin
which helps run a external exe file. Is that enough, how can i configure it?
2. If i have to write a plugin, can anyone give me some proper material on
how this can be done.
3. I would be very happy if anyone could point me to the right direction.
Thanks a lot
