I did a blog post about this ages ago..

http://www.mosabuam.com/2009/10/company-super-pom-a-maven-practice

Keep in mind that this is a few years old so the versions and such are out of date.. but the concept still applies.

Hi Eric,

I was wondering why your project POM's packaging type is "POM". If I understand 
correctly, with "POM" packaging type you'd only get 3 default goals bound to their phases 
(I read it here: 
http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-the-lifecycle.html#Built-in_Lifecycle_Bindings).

Thanks,
Amir

Subject: Re: Which is the BEST Approach to define Global POM.XML

What I do is have a top-level POM like (see below), and then I have my top 
level project POMs reference that (see further below). This may not be the best 
example, as I am still in the process of building the infrastructure, but

  1. I put the Parent POM in its own place in source control and I
     manually deploy it with Maven when I make changes.
  2. You need to do this before creating any Project POMs that reference
     it because they should reference it via Maven and not the file
     system - if you work in a large company you will soon discover why.
  3. There is of course a bootstrapping issue because now the project
     POMs need to know how to find your Repository Manager, which is why
     I include that information in the top level (Corporate) POM so
     people can use it as a reference.
  4. As you may gather I am using Sonatype's Nexus as a Repository Manager.
  5. We are still developing our corporate repository infrastructure so
     the content of the Corporate POM will evolve over time as our
     corporate governance and policies are better codified.

Does that help?

Hi Maven Team,

I am trying to find out what is the best way to define company
specific GLOBAL POM.XML. Which each team can inherit it in EACH Projects.

Can some one provide me guideline on that ? Is that going to be
profile or just simple POM.XML ? And how to inherit that. Please
provide me guideline to implement it. As this is very critical before
we implement all projects with MAVEN.

Thanks,
Daivish.
