The project setup doesn't seem wrong. I would start creating a company
pom as parent for all 3 projects to start creating a uniform build
process in the company.

For the Eclipse thing, did you install an Eclipse plugin or did you
mean the Maven plugin. If you install an Eclipse (I prefer M2Eclipse
[1]) you can just import the three project trees into one or more
workspaces.
