IAM will always work with the embedded maven version for tight integration.

You can still launch maven as a separate process for specific goals 
through Eclipse's external tool support.

 - Run > External Tools > External Tools Configurations...
 - In the window that opens,
   - Double click "Program" on the tree (left side)
   - Fill in the name (for instance "mvn jetty:run")
   - Fill in the location (browse to your mvn launcher in 
"$MAVEN_HOME/bin")
   - Fill in the working directory (you can use "${project_loc}" to 
always launch from the selected resource project root)
   - Fill in the arguments (for instance "jetty:run", or any other option 
just as in the command line)
   - You probably would like to refresh the "Project containing the 
selected resource", so eclipse sees any changes done by maven

Hope that helps!
