Go further with the Autonomous Enterprise as an SAP partner
Customers no longer ask whether to use AI. They ask where it will pay off first and how fast they can get there. The Autonomous Enterprise is SAP's answer, and it gives partners a clear way into those conversations.
This post brings together what you need to position, demo and deliver SAP's autonomous domains with your customers: pitch decks, campaign briefs, PartnerEdge pages, and the partner sessions for each domain. Everything linked here is available to partners on SAP PartnerEdge.
Why the Autonomous Enterprise matters to you
In each line of business, AI assistants take on whole areas of work, such as closing the books or qualifying a deal. They hand the routine steps to specialised agents. People stay in charge of the decisions that matter, with business data and process context built in.
The story comes in five autonomous domains: Finance, Supply Chain Management, Spend, CX and HCM. All of them run on the SAP Business AI Platform, and users reach them through Joule.
For partners, that means three things:
- Open with value. Start customer conversations with the value proposition of each assistant.
- Lead the journey. Take customers from a first discovery workshop to adoption.
- Build on top. Create your own agents and extensions where SAP's own leave off.
The steps below follow that path.
1. Start with the story
The L0 Autonomous Enterprise narrative frames every domain conversation: an AI-native suite where assistants in each line of business work with specialised agents, on one data and AI platform.
- Autonomous Enterprise | L0 Pitch Deck: the core story for customers.
- SAP Autonomous Suite: the PartnerEdge home for the Autonomous Suite.
- What's new in Autonomous Enterprise and SAP Autonomous Suite: the latest updates in one place.
- The Beginning of Better – Autonomous Enterprise Campaign: campaign assets you can use in your own marketing.
- SAP Autonomous Suite Commercialization Customer Presentation: licensing components and entitlements, ready to show customers. Full Partners only.
- SAP Autonomous Suite Commercialization Overview: the detailed licensing guide for your own team. Full Partners only, not for customers.
Put a number on the value
Every assistant comes with a value proposition: the business problem it solves, the value drivers it moves and an indicative benefit. They are collected in one PDF, grouped by domain, so you can find the assistants that matter to your customer and lead with their value. A value calculator is coming soon, to help you turn these figures into a business case for a specific customer.
To size the commercial side, use the SAP AI Unit Estimator on SAP Discovery Center. It estimates how many AI units a customer will need for the AI features and agents they plan to use.
- SAP Autonomous Domain Assistants – Value Propositions by Autonomous Domain: the value proposition of every assistant, grouped by autonomous domain.
- SAP AI Unit Estimator: estimate AI unit consumption for a customer.

3. Show it working
Customers buy what they have seen, and you can show them the assistants and agents in action:
- SAP Demo Environment (SDE) 2.0 gives you free access to the same demo content, landscapes and releases that SAP's own sales teams use. Look for the SDE 2.0 sessions under Finance and Supply Chain Management above.
- A Test, Demo and Development (TDD) licence gives you your own SAP Business AI system for building demos and running proofs of concept.
Show the demo alongside the value story, so the conversation moves from what an assistant does to what it is worth.
- SAP Demo Environment 2.0: what's included and how to order it.
- SAP GROW Fast: Demo resources with SAP Demo Environment 2.0: a walkthrough of the SDE 2.0 demos for finance and supply chain scope, and how to use them in presales. Nov 19, 2026.

Lead with an AI Discovery Workshop
To find where to start, run an AI Discovery Workshop with the customer. It maps their priorities to the assistants and agents that fit, and ends with an action plan you can take into a proof of concept.
- AI discovery workshop – Advanced session: how to run the workshop with your customers and how it supports your partner business and AI activations, with a Q&A with SAP experts.
- Agentic discovery workshop: Ideation to use case development: the Joule Agent Discovery Workshop format, from idea generation to a prioritised, detailed agent use case, with the materials to run it yourself.
4. Build where SAP's own agents leave off
Every customer has processes that no standard agent covers. With Joule Studio and SAP Build, you can create agents and skills that work alongside SAP's assistants. The PartnerEdge Build journey then helps you turn them into solutions you can sell to many customers.
Get your agents published on SAP Discovery Center
SAP Discovery Center lists partner-built agentic AI use cases, so customers looking for a solution can find yours. Browse the catalogue to see what other partners have built, then submit your own use case for publication.
- Discover partner-built agentic AI use cases on SAP Discovery Center
- Discover the agentic AI innovations being built across the partner ecosystem: how to submit your use case.
5. Get support: coaching, programs and incentives
You don't have to do this alone. SAP offers coaching, hands-on workshops and funding to help you build your AI practice and close your first deals.
