This appears to be a bug in intellij, and oddly enough it just started showing up in my system today.
You can go through the possible solutions here (I haven't tried): https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20496239/maven-plugins-can-not-be-found-in-intellij There are probably other solutions out there. If you find one please share.
