You can set it up to use your own repository.

It is my impression that Maven is a 90% tool. It make life easier for
the 90% easiest cases - cases where it is possible to have
the project follow the Maven philosophy. For the remaining
10% the same features that make it easier for the normal cases
make it real hard. So if the project is tricky, then you
are probably better of with Ant that is intended as
a custom build script tool.
