I don't believe anyone from BioWare has explained them, but it's safe to assume they'll be like consumables in Mass Effect MP: one-time consumables which give you a boost for the mission, like +20% shields or -15% shield recharge delay.
In Mass Effect one of the slots was for ammo, which meant that you could equip special ammo which applied fire, frost, or some other status for detonation. But unless I missed a comment/explanation from BioWare, we can only guess what specific items will be available.
Basically this. You can craft them using mats, and then use them for various buffs that will last for the whole mission 😊.
