By default, Spring Boot Maven Plugin builds jar file with name ${project.build.finalName}. This can be configured with non-required property finalName.

Maven build time can be used as ${maven.build.timestamp}

So, putting all things together, all you need to do is append build time to default jar name:

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>1.5.6.RELEASE</version>
    <configuration>
        <mainClass>com.marand.thinkmed.meds.config.boot.MedsConfigApplication</mainClass>
        <finalName>${project.build.finalName}-${maven.build.timestamp}</finalName>
    </configuration>
</plugin>

Also, make sure to change timestamp format so it doesn't violate file naming strategies:

<properties>
    <maven.build.timestamp.format>yyyy-MM-dd-HH-mm</maven.build.timestamp.format>
</properties>
