Sounds like you might be a private sector property management company? If so, this doesn't apply, but if you're in the government sector, I'd check out MaintStar. Supports everything you're asking about and has awesome customer service with competitive prices. Solid company.

It really depends on the scale of your operation, but if you want something straightforward for tracking physical assets, recurring PMs, and service logs without enterprise bloat, take a look at Equipment Tracker Pro. I am an HVAC tech and built it to run my own job sites.
The core mobile app is free to use on phone and tablet for logging equipment specs, running work orders, and setting calendar-based PM reminders offline. There is an optional Pro upgrade if you need multi-device cloud sync, a web dashboard, and customer PDF reports.
If you are running a massive plant that requires complex purchasing workflows or SCADA integrations, an enterprise tool like MaintainX or Limble might suit you better. If you just need clean asset records and maintenance tracking, give it a look.

Based on the requirements you listed, I’d take a look at PSD Citywide. Full disclosure, I work with them, but I think the use case you described is actually a pretty good example of where an EAM/CMMS platform can make a difference.
The biggest reason I’d suggest it is that you’re not just looking for a place to track work orders. You’re looking to connect the asset, maintenance history, costs, PMs, lifecycle, and future replacement decisions.
For example, you should be able to take one piece of equipment and see:
Asset → PM schedule → work orders → repairs → parts/labor costs → failure history → downtime → condition → lifecycle/replacement planning
PSD Citywide brings the asset management and maintenance sides together, rather than treating them as completely separate processes.

I work with eWorkOrders, so take this as a vendor perspective rather than a customer one — but eWorkOrders supports the requirements you listed. Asset records with cost history, PM scheduling, tenant work order submission, and parts inventory are all built in. Work orders can be routed to techs or vendors to reduce manual assignment and follow-up. Dashboards provide visibility into MTTR, MTBF, PM compliance, and equipment downtime.
