Is there an out of box solution for repeatable tasks that aren't changes, incidents or requests?

We are looking for a way to track repeatable tasks for various departments to complete routine work. Before going the custom application route, I want to make sure I'm not overlooking any OOB solutions that are designed for this type of task.

Yes. 
1)  Build out a Catalog Item AS IF the routine task was something someone had to order.  This includes a Flow with an SC_Task.
2)  Build a second flow with trigger method of schedule.  Use the Submit Catalog Request action.  Use it to fire the item you built in 1.
