Lemongrass says it has developed 24 AI agents for SAP Discovery Center, nearly one-fifth of the partner-built tools listed on the platform, as it seeks to turn SAP’s agentic AI strategy into deployable business workflows.
Lemongrass is leaning hard into SAP’s push towards agentic artificial intelligence, saying it has built 24 AI agents for the SAP Discovery Center and now accounts for nearly one-fifth of the partner-developed agents listed there.

sey-based cloud transformation specialist, which is an SAP Gold partner with Sell, Service and Build designations as well as an authorisation under the Rise with SAP programme, is using that portfolio to position itself as one of the more prominent channel players in SAP’s emerging AI ecosystem. According to the company, its agents are designed to move beyond experimental demonstrations and into practical business workflows across procurement, finance, service operations and integration architecture.
Jonathan Brunt, vice-president of strategic partner initiatives at Lemongrass, told CRN that the aim is to narrow the divide between IT and business teams by centring the technology on process outcomes rather than AI for its own sake. He said the company was trying to remove bias from decision-making and make the technology more useful to customers, while describing its approach as “agentic-first”.
SAP Discovery Center currently lists 287 AI agents that work with Joule, SAP’s AI-powered copilot, with the bulk created by SAP itself and a significant number added by channel partners. Lemongrass’ contribution includes tools such as a Commercial Procurement Request Agent, a Days Sales Outstanding and Overdue Receivables Insights Agent, an Email Response Drafting Agent and a Working Capital Insights Agent.
The company says the agents are built to operate across connected enterprise workflows and draw on its experience from customer implementations. While they are intended to be repeatable deployments, Brunt said they can also be adapted for individual customer needs.
“We lead with best practices and that is aligning to SAP’s strategy,” he said, arguing that Lemongrass’ long background in SAP migrations gives it an edge in simplifying complex environments and speeding value delivery.
That migration expertise matters at a time when SAP is urging customers to move from legacy Business Suite 7 systems, including ECC, to S/4HANA before mainstream maintenance ends in 2027. SAP has made clean core architecture a central part of that transition, encouraging customers to reduce custom code and standardise processes so upgrades become easier and less costly.
SAP’s own AI roadmap has recently reinforced that direction. At its Sapphire conference in May, the company unveiled the SAP Business AI Platform, which brought together the SAP Business Technology Platform, SAP Business Data Cloud, Joule and SAP Business AI into a single environment for building and governing AI agents. SAP also introduced the Autonomous Suite, its own collection of agents aimed at core business functions.
For partners such as Lemongrass, the opportunity is not only to sell software but to help operationalise it. Brunt said customers may find the agents through SAP Discovery Center, but they still need implementation support to connect them to data sources, establish governance and embed them into live processes.
He also argued that the value of AI agents increases when they can draw on information across multiple systems, such as procurement tools and contract risk platforms, and automate work that would otherwise require manual effort. That, he said, allows customers to extend SAP applications without undermining the clean core model.
Lemongrass says its broader cloud platform already automates, analyses and optimises SAP workloads by inspecting customer customisations and identifying inefficiencies. The company believes that same foundation can support a more ambitious AI strategy, helping customers modernise systems while also generating operational insight and business advantage.
The company’s latest milestone reflects a broader shift in the SAP partner ecosystem, where firms are racing to turn AI from a promise into a production tool. SAP’s own Discovery Center is intended to help customers explore use cases, reference architectures and best practices, and Lemongrass is positioning itself as a partner that can carry those ideas from catalogue to execution.
Those themes are likely to draw attention again at SAP TechEd Virtual later this month, where the push towards AI agents, cloud migration and clean core operations is expected to remain central to the conversation.
