Is it possible to add a check that all submodules have the same version defined as in parent pom?

Question

I have a project with numerous submodules.

In each submodule pom.xml file, I repeat exactly the same version number that was defined in parent pom.xml file.

Is it possible:

to define version number in smart way, in only one place, in only one pom.xml file?
to add some verification during build phase that all of the pom.xml files have exactly the same version defined?

For 2: You may think of writing your own maven plugin and injecting it with the maven lifecycle. Please refer to: https://www.mojohaus.org/versions-maven-plugin/
