CICD Question - How to build a job that has another job from a referenced project?

[sarora1]

Main job - abc

Reference Job - abc_ref

Job design 

   abc = tjava -> abc_ref 

mvn command to build the job

mvn -f MAIN_PROJECT/poms/pom.xml deploy -pl jobs/process/abc_0.1 -am

 Getting below error

[ERROR] Child module /var/lib/jenkins/workspace/Test_Build/MAIN_PROJECT/poms/../../REF_PROJECT/poms of /var/lib/jenkins/workspace/Test_Build/MAIN_PROJECT/poms/pom.xml does not exist

It is complaining that REF_PROJECT/poms doesnt exist within the MAIN_PROJECT. How to include reference project in the build process? Is there a maven option to include it?
