QGIS can definitely do all of those things. We have been using and loving the Input app but for your purposes a simpler method might work. If you have the person on the site take a picture of the machine with their phone (location services should be turned on) you could then collect all of the pictures in a folder and use the Import Geotagged Photos tool in QGIS to bring the photos into QGIS and have a point created at each location. Once you have a point layer you can add any additional data you like. Here is a blog post that might be useful. https://opengislab.com/blog/2020/8/23/mapping-and-viewing-geotagged-photos-in-qgis
