Try this (taken from the NSWorkspace documentation):

- (BOOL)launchApplication:(NSString *)appName

Depending on whether the application is a tool or an application, I would not use this API in the second case.

Since the name of the Application can be modified by the user, it might be worth finding the path/url of the application using the LaunchService Framework using the bundle ID or creator. Then the application can be launched using the CFURLRef.
